Prabhupāda: That is nonsense. Future, that is not science. "Trust no future, however pleasant." This is the word. What is this? Everyone will say "future." "Trust no future, however pleasant." You may think it is very pleasurable. Why future? If you say that the biology, chemistry is the beginning of this life, so you are now so much advanced, why don't you create? Then what is the meaning of your advancement? You're talking nonsense. Karandhara: They always say they're right on the verge. Prabhupāda: Eh? Karandhara: They always say they're right on the verge. Prabhupāda: That is also the future, in a different way. You have to accept that you do not know still what is the truth. You are expecting in future. That, that is the proof that your knowledge is imperfect. Why future?.

Karandhara: Not just say that it was created by chance, random biology. But scientists objected, said: "We cannot say that God created the earth, because then everyone will take us as fools." And they defeated the measure. The scientists said: "Everyone knows the earth is just created by biological chemistry. If we say that God created the earth, everyone will think us as fools."Prabhupāda: The biology, chemistry, why don't you create? The biology and chemistry has advanced so much. Why don't you create? What is their answer?Karandhara: "In the future."Prabhupāda: That is their foolishness. Why future? If it is already created, biology and chemistry, and you know the process, why don't you create by chemistry, biology?Brahmānanda: (refers to ground) It's very wet.Svarūpa Dāmodara: It is a little wet, Prabhupāda.Prabhupāda: So we can . . .Devotee: The whole lawn is. It's all wet.Prabhupāda: Therefore I do not wish to come here. There is no facility for walking. Everywhere wet.Svarūpa Dāmodara: Ahh. This is wet also. Let's go this side.Prabhupāda: Everywhere wet. There is a little space to walk. If biology, chemistry is the origin of life, so the chemistry, biology's so much advanced, why they cannot create life? When the crucial point is touched, they say: "We shall do it in future." Why future? If it is already done at present, why future?(looking at small piles of earth) What is this?Svarūpa Dāmodara: This is . . . small ones?Prabhupāda: Hmm?Svarūpa Dāmodara: These are some small earth, mound of earth taken out from the inside to make room for oxygen for the plants to breath.Prabhupāda: No, no. These are stools.Svarūpa Dāmodara: No, these are not stools, Śrīla Prabhupāda. There's a machine. They go around like this, and that makes a little earth taken out.Prabhupāda: Ahhh.Svarūpa Dāmodara: They say they'll be doing in the future.Prabhupāda: That is nonsense. Future, that is not science. "Trust no future, however pleasant." This is the word. What is this? Everyone will say "future." "Trust no future, however pleasant." You may think it is very pleasurable. Why future? If you say that the biology, chemistry is the beginning of this life, so you are now so much advanced, why don't you create? Then what is the meaning of your advancement? You're talking nonsense.Karandhara: They always say they're right on the verge.Prabhupāda: Eh?Karandhara: They always say they're right on the verge.Prabhupāda: That is also the future, in a different way. You have to accept that you do not know still what is the truth. You are expecting in future. That, that is the proof that your knowledge is imperfect. Why future?Svarūpa Dāmodara: Because their present knowledge cannot . . .Prabhupāda: It is, it is something like giving post-dated check. I pay you one lakh of rupees, post-dated. Although I have no money . . . what is the value of that check? Will anybody accept that check? "Oh, I have received the money." That is foolishness. Why future? You are talking of future, and you are talking of perfectness at present. What is this nonsense? You are claiming that your science is perfect, and at the same time, when practical example wanted, you say, "I shall do it."The same example. I am saying I am millions . . . I am owner of millions of dollars. And you ask me, "Give me some payment," "Yes, I give you post-dated check," will you accept? At present, if you give me five dollar, I see something tangible. And you're talking of big, big word, but you'll pay me in the future. So is it very sanguine proposal? And I am to accept it? So what kind of intelligent man I am also? You cannot produce even a grass by biological chemistry. You cannot do anything. Still you are claiming, "It is produced of chemistry, biology." What is this nonsense? Nobody questions?Karandhara: Even it's produced by chemistry, there's laws . . .Prabhupāda: Eh?Karandhara: There's laws to those chemical reactions. They never consider who makes the laws.Prabhupāda: Then? What is this? As soon as there is law, it must be considered that somebody made the law.Karandhara: It's just a thief's mentality.Prabhupāda: Eh?Karandhara: If a thief comes on something valuable, he does not think who owns this. He simply thinks how he'll steal it.Prabhupāda: That is thief's business.Karandhara: Yes.Prabhupāda: So they are all thieves.Karandhara: Yes.Prabhupāda: So how we, a sane man, can trust a thief? A sane man cannot trust a thief. There are so many things. They could not produce even a grass, even a small plant in the biology, chemistry laboratory, and still they're claiming it is product of biology, chemistry. What is this nonsense? What kind of scientist they are?Locana: We couldn't even choose when we were born.Prabhupāda: Eh?Locana: We couldn't even choose being born here.Prabhupāda: Yes.Locana: So where is the question of control?Svarūpa Dāmodara: That is why, in the ultimate analysis, the geologists, mostly when they trace the origin of life, they say everything started from matter. Living matters came out from nonliving matters.Prabhupāda: Where it is coming now? It came in the past and not in the now, and not at present? Where from an ant is coming from this dust? Is there any proof? Even an ant does not come.
