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 an
avowed atheist and a member of the ACLU.
One day the professor shocked the class when he came
in looked up 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, stunned,
and sat there looking on in silence. The professor
eventually came to, noticeably shaken, looked at the
Marine and asked, 'What the heck is the matter with you?
Why did you do that?' The Marine calmly replied,
'God was too busy today protecting American
soldiers who are protecting your right to say stupid
stuff and act like an idiot. So, He sent me.'
And all God's people said -- AMEN!
