A Lesson In Faith
A foolish young fellow once astonished an old
clergyman by boasting. ‘’I don’t believe in anything I can’t see and understand,’’
he said. “Do you believe there in such a country as France?’’
enquired the clergy-man. ‘’ Yes,’’ he said, “because, though l have never seen
it, l know people who have.‘’ “Then you refuse to believe in anything that you
or others haven’t seen ?’’ “Most certainly,‘’ said the youth. ‘’ Did you ever
see your own brains?’’ “Of course not.’’ Do you know anybody who has seen them?
‘’ No.’’
“Do you think you have got any ?‘’
The young man knew that he was defeated and he hung
his head in shame.
