God Is Simplified Godliness

EDMUND BURKE was an Irish historian, besides being a philosopher, political theorist, orator and author. He was writing a history of humanity of five thousand years. Very cautiously he was collecting facts and figures regarding ancient history through various sources for past twenty years. He was jotting down all his work and about to complete his book of that history, however a certain incident has changed his life and he destroyed all his work.

One day while he was writing the last chapter of his book someone got murdered in his backyard due to the consequence of a dispute between two groups of people. After hearing the sound he rushed to his backyard and enquired about the reason of the incidence. He asked many people available on the spot; however he got a different story narration by every person. The people who were pro have a different version of the story than the people who were against however the people who were in neither side had a different story. Even the people of the same group have narrated differently. He instantly realized that if the murder, which has happened just now, has had different narrations then the incident happened five thousand years back cannot be concluded confidently to a single end. Therefore he returned to his table and destroyed all his work having labor of twenty years.
