A college professor, an avowed Atheist, was teaching his class.
He
shocked
several of his students when he flatly stated that there is no
God,
and
the _
expression, "One Nation, Under God", was unconstitutional, and
further,
he
was going to prove there is no God. Addressing the ceiling he
shouted:
"God,
if you are real, I want you to knock me off this platform. I'll
give
you
15
minutes!"
The lecture room fell silent. You could have heard a pin fall.
Ten
minutes
went by. Again he taunted God, saying, "Here I am, God. I'm still
waiting."
His countdown! got down to the last couple of minutes when a
Marine,
just
released from active duty and newly registered in the class,
walked up
to
the professor, hit him full force in the face, andsent him
sailing
from
his lofty platform. The professor was out cold.
At first the students were shocked and babbled in confusion. The
young
Marine took a seat in the front row and sat silent. The class
fell
silent
..... waiting. Eventually the professor came to, shaken. He looked
at
the
young Marine in the front row. When he regained his senses and
could
speak, he yelled, "What's the matter with you? Why did you do
that?"
"God was busy. He sent me."
GOD BLESS AMERICA!
