障碍窒息挡住光明,就是蜡烛也点不亮
Sir Isaac Newton was a great scientist and also a fine Christian. He
was an excellent, part-time preacher. Some people asked him, “Why, when faced
with such a wonderful gospel message, do some people still reject God?”
艾萨克•牛顿爵士既是一位伟大的科学家,也是一名虔诚的基督徒。他还是一位优秀的兼职牧师。曾有人问他:“面对如此美妙的福音,为什么仍有人拒绝信仰?”
He answered, “Sometimes I’ve absent-mindedly tried to light my
candle with the extinguishing cover on. It wouldn’t work. It is not that the
candle doesn’t work, but something I did blocked it from lighting.”
牛顿回答:“有时候蜡烛处于被窒息的环境,而我却心不在焉地试图去点亮它。这自然无法点亮。但这不是因为蜡烛没用,而是因为障碍窒息物挡住了光明。”
牛顿的话语简短而充满睿智, 汉语的大体意思就是强调“如果障碍窒息挡住光明,就是蜡烛也点不亮”。
没有信仰,科学会跛脚;没有科学,宗教会盲目…
Science without
religion is lame; religion without science is blind …
