THE ATHEIST AND THE MARINE
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 shit and act like an
asshole. So, He sent me.'
