Science?!

When the tall, black haired, Brahmin said "I believe my religion and believe when it says Darwin’s theory is wrong”, I had a conversation within myself.  The two people inside me : the atheist and the son of my parents kept talking and will probably never stop. But I guess there’s a winner nonetheless. Till the day the son finds enough belief in the religion to throw the atheist out of me, the atheist will keep winning. But this is an episode where he actually lost!!

Atheist : Hari can’t be serious!! It’s just the heat of the discussion getting to him!!

Son of Brahmins : I half doubt Darwin too. After-all, nothing has ever been certain. So what if they found fossils? Maybe that was also a wrong theory.

Atheist : So, you’re saying if people proved the world to be round and not flat, they will prove humans are humans and not evolved apes?!

Son  : Yes, I bet you can’t find a fault with that argument of mine.
