Subject: God was busy. He sent me


A college professor, an avowed Atheist, was teaching his class. He shocked
several of his students when he flatly stated he was going to prove there
was no God. Addressing the ceiling he shouted:

"God, if you are real, then 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 count-down 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, and sent him tumbling 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 the professor regained his senses and could speak he
asked:

"What's the matter with you? Why did you do that?"

"God was busy. He sent me."
