The Lost God                    A businessman had two sons. One             was six years old and other was nine.             Since both husband and wife were busy             doing business, they did not have time to             educate their children; therefore, the two             kids became so restless and hyperactive             that they got involved in any fight and             minor theft. After going to court for their             children's wrongdoings, the couple was so             depressed that they both agreed to bring             the kids to a church in the village and             asked the minister to educate them in             hopes that they would become better             boys. Upon their insistence, the minister             finally agreed to spend some of his spare             time to educate the youngsters. He told the             couple to send the younger one to him             first. The couple was elated. They took             their younger son to the church the next             morning and went home with excitement.                 The minister took the boy into his             office, thinking that he would teach him a             little bit on religion and virtue. Using a             gentle voice, he asked the boy: "Do you             know where God is?" The boy did not say             anything. He was just quiet and looked             around the room. He looked at the             pictures on the wall, and in the corner of             the room, and bent down to look under             the table, et cetera. Finally, he looked at             the face of the minister without saying one             word.                 The minister felt uneasy, but he             reluctantly asked him one more time. This             time, he raised his voice thinking that,             perhaps the boy had not heard him clearly             before. He repeated: "Do you know where             God is?" Hearing his loud voice, the boy's             face looked a bit frightened. However,             besides looking around the room, he did             not say a word, and then again turned his             eyes toward the face of the minister.                 At this point, the minister could not             bear it anymore. He pointed his finger at             the boy's face and yelled loudly: "I...I, I'm             asking you for the last time. Do you know             where God is?"                 This time, the boy was truly scared.             He hurriedly pushed aside the chair and             ran home. As he arrived home, he             immediately looked for his brother.             Without saying a word, he pulled him to a             corner and said with a shaken voice: "This             time, the matter is very grave!" Watching             his younger brother in such a terrible state,             he was also worried. He asked his             younger brother again: "What happened?             You look so miserable?" The younger             brother answered in a broken voice:             "God...has been stolen, and they suspect...             suspect... that we are the ones who took             Hirm!!!"
