An Interesting Debate

Twin Babies were talking in the womb of a mother..

Here are some excerpts --

-- Do you believe in life after birth?

-- No I don't. There is no such thing as life after birth. Life ends with birth. Period.

-- I feel there is life after birth. Perhaps we are here to prepare for that.

-- Don't be ridiculous.. There is no such thing. How do you know?  has anyone returned to tell us about it?

-- Think there is light after birth..I feel we will be able to walk with our feet and eat with our own mouths. There will be plenty of space and we will move around. There will be many like us and we will laugh and play!

-- What rubbish are you talking? Be quiet!  how could we move about? What about the umbilical cord? It is too short. We could kill ourselves if we tried to move about or play!

-- I think Mother will take care of us. She will make sure we do not kill ourselves.

-Mother? I don't believe in Mother. I will believe her only when I see her.

-- You don't see her now, but you will, after birth. Even now, I can feel her around me, loving me, caressing me, protecting me.

-- Ah well.. I give up.. No point in arguing with you.. Live in your dream world.. Let me sleep...
