Two things to know before you read below:

Marines are taught:

1) Keep your priorities in order and

2) Know when to act without hesitation.

A soldier was attending a college course between missions in Iraq and

Afghanistan. The professor, an avowed atheist, shocked the class one day

when he walked in, looked toward the ceiling, and said loudly, "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 and the professor began his lecture. Ten

minutes went by and the professor proclaimed, "Here I am God - still

waiting."

It got down to the last minute when the soldier stood up, walked

toward the professor and threw his best punch knocking him off the

platform and out cold. The Marine went back to his seat and sat down.

The other students were shocked and stunned and sat there looking on

in silence. The professor came to, noticeably shaken, looked at the

Marine and asked, "What the hell is the matter with you? Why did you do

that?"

The soldier calmly replied, "God is busy today protecting America's

soldiers who are protecting your right to behave like an idiot and say

stupid stuff. So He sent me."

Have a blessed day!!
