GOD'S BUSY

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 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 heck 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 stuff and act like
an idiot. So, He sent me."
