A United States Marine was attending some college courses between
assignments. He had completed missions in Iraq and Afghanistan. One of the
courses had a professor who was a vowed atheist and a member of the ACLU.
One day the professor shocked the class when he came in. He looked to
the ceiling and flatly stated, "God, if you are real, then I want you to
knock me off this platform. I'll give you exactly 15 minutes." The lecture
room fell silent. You could hear a pin drop. Ten minutes went by and the
professor proclaimed, "Here I am God. I'm still waiting." It got down to
the last couple of minutes when the Marine got out of his Chair, went up
to the professor, and cold-cocked him; knocking him off the platform. The
professor was out cold.
The Marine
went back to his seat and sat there, silently. The other students
were shocked and stunned and sat there looking on in silence. The
professor
eventually came to, noticeably shaken, looked at the Marine and asked,
"What
the hell is the matter with you? Why did you do that?" The Marine calmly
replied, "God was too busy today protecting America 's soldiers who are
protecting your right to say stupid sh it and act like an as shole. So, He
sent me."
