If You Don't Know God
 If you don't know GOD, don't make stupid remarks!!!!!!

 A United States Marine was taking some college courses between assignments.
He had completed 20 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 exactly15 min.'

 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 in the world 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.'

 The classroom  erupted in cheers!
