You know what?...
I don't care if this is old... or if it's recycled...or even if it's not true...
It made me smile anyway... and I hope it tickles you... :D
A United States Marine was attending some college e courses between assignments. He had completed missions in Iraq and Afghanistan. One of the courses had a professor who was anti-everything, 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 said, "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 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 $h*t and act like
an a-hole. So, He sent me."
