Life after birth – do you believe?

In the womb of a pregnant woman, two fetuses are having a conversation. One is a believer and the other is an atheist.

Atheist: Do you believe in life after birth?

Believer: Of course I believe. Everyone knows that there is life after birth. We are here to grow and to become strong so that we can deal with what is awaiting us over there.

Atheist: Nonsense! There can be no life after birth! Can you even imagine how such a life could be?

Believer: I do not know all the details, but I do believe that there will be more light, and that we will even be able to feed ourselves over there.

Atheist: Nonsense! It is impossible to feed ourselves! Ridiculous! We have an umbilical cord which feeds us, a cord that is already too short.

Believer: I am certain that it is possible. It will just be a bit different. I can indeed imagine it.

Atheist: But no one has ever returned from there! Life simply ends at birth. And anyway, to tell you the truth, life is just one prolonged suffering in darkness.

Believer: No, no! I do not know precisely how life is over there after birth, but in any case we will meet our mother and she will take care of us!

Atheist: Mother? You think that we have a mother? So where is she right here and now?

Believer: She is everywhere around us, we are within her. We are fetuses thanks to her and because of her, we are alive! Without her, we would not exist.

Atheist: Nonsense! I never saw such a mother and so she does not exist.

Believer: I can not agree with you. In fact, sometimes, when everything is calm, we can hear her singing, we can feel how she caresses our world. I believe that our true life will only begin after we are born.

And what do you believe, dear reader?
