THE ATHEIST AND THE MARINE

(This doesn't get any better)

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 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 things and act like an idiot. So, He

sent me."

Herein lies the hypocrisy of religious fundamentalism, be it Christian, Islam or whatever, that violence and murder in the name of your god, whoever that god may be, is justifiable. It makes me sick!

So Martin, let me see if I understand this right........the atheist professor had the right to temp God and influence those in his class any way he wanted but no one else had the right to to express their self????

What was the professors name..Adolf Hitler?
