leroydb 0 #1 February 11, 2005 Two things Navy SEALS are always taught: 1. Keep your priorities in order 2. Know when to act without hesitation A college professor, an avowed atheist and active in the ACLU, was teaching his class. He shocked several of his students when he flatly stated that for once and for all 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 exactly 15 minutes!!!!!" The lecture room fell silent. You could hear a pin drop. Ten minutes went by. " I'm waiting God, if you're real, knock me off this platform!!!!" Again after 4 minutes, the professor taunted God saying, "Here I am, God!!! I'm still waiting!!!" His count down got down to the last couple of seconds when a SEAL, just released from the Navy after serving overseas and newly registered in the class, walked up to the Professor. The SEAL hit him full force in the face, and sent the Professor tumbling from his lofty platform. The Professor was out cold!! The students were stunned and shocked. They began to babble in confusion. The SEAL nonchalantly took his seat in the front row and sat silent. The class looked at him and fell silent.....waiting. Eventually, the professor came to and was noticeably shaken. He looked at the SEAL in the front row. When the professor regained his senses and could speak he shouted: "What the hell is the matter with you?! Why did you do that!?" "God was really busy protecting America's soldiers, who are protecting your right to say stupid things and act like a jerk!!! So he sent me!!" ONE NATION UNDER GOD!!!Leroy ..I knew I was an unwanted baby when I saw my bath toys were a toaster and a radio... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflyimpaired 0 #2 February 11, 2005 I liked that alot. Is it true? "Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeflir29 0 #10 February 11, 2005 QuoteI am just a deck jockey with a fully automatic M4A1, adjustable shoulderstock, etc.... So you DO admit to being in the Navy? I'm just giving you shit bro. I have friends who are SEAL's so I give them as much shit as I can. One really good friend that had two of the most hardcore jobs in the Air Force BEFORE he turned down an NFL contract to become a SEAL. I still think he should have played for a year or two just to get a nest egg before he went to BUDS. Dave's just crazy like that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If true, he had time to evaluate the situation and possible outcomes. You always have time to evaluate. You no not always have the same amount of time to evaluate.
