Navy Seals...........
 
Two things Navy SEALS are 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 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 5 minutes, the professor taunted God, saying, "Here I am,

God!!! I'm still waiting!" His count down got down to the last
couple of minutes when a SEAL, just released from the Navy after
serving in Afghanistan and Iraq 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 asked: "What the hell is the matter with you? Why did you
do that?" *

*The SEAL replied: "God was really busy watching over
America's soldiers, who are protecting your right to say stupid sh*t
and act like an as*hole!!! *

*So He told me to take care of it

Of corse it is a funny story, I just don't believe in god or Bushes idea's.
And I said I was sorry

Both a Vet and and an atheist here.We are once again dying because "god"(allah) has told a bunch of whack-jobs its OK.

Religion(god) is responsible for all death and destruction on this planet.To deny that is simply foolish.

Remove the idea of god from peoples' minds and the world would truly be Peaceful for the first time.

I hate how people like you make anyone who believes in God out to be a radical religious freak...Get lost. Are you the same guy who is trying to get "under God" outta the pledge and "in God we trust" off money? Will you be one of the people who wants Xmas banned too? Your the real freak. Dude, Take a freakin Joke for whats its worth. it was funny!!

Ummm.. no. PEOPLE who use religious and political agendas are resposible for death and destruction.
Religion is MAN MADE.
I am neither Christian, nor Jewish, nor Muslim, nor of any other man made relgion. I have no religion, but I DO have a God.

Relgion is for people who are afraid of going to hell. God and spirituality are for people who have already been there.

What...You can't be one without being the other?

and by the way....Athiests don't "Hate" god...they just don't beleive in him.

Skip N 11-16-2005 12:12 PM

"and by the way....Athiests don't "Hate" god...they just don't beleive in him"

Truthfully i really dont care what they believe. Thats thier belief and i should respect that. But what ticks me off is how so many of them try to tear down any mention of God in the US. Remove the mention of God from Buldings, Money, The Pledge and no Xmas. That is extreme in my opinion and is not what this country was founded on. They just flip out and call any church goer and Extremist and a nut. If your an Athiest thst fine and thats your belief...Just dont try and tear down this countrys tradition and history with God becuase you dont like it.

spence 11-16-2005 12:15 PM

Skip, the number of people who really feel it's important to remove all references to God in our government is limited to a very small handfull of the population.

You're watching too much FOX News :doh:

If you really believe that you are the one being foolish. Stalin was an atheist and killed millions. The tutsis who carved up a million hutus didn't profess to be doin it in the name of any god. Neither the First or second world wars had any religious overtones, unless you count the fact that hitler killed thousands of people simply because they believed in "the one whose name cannot be spoken." But if you think that all "death and destruction" is religiously motivated you had better go back a re-read your history books.

Religous Crusades
 
What about the crusades? Are you saying no one died in the named of someone else Gods wrath during those skirmishes? I wonder what would have happened in europe if Hitler wasn't killing every Jewish person he coud get his hands on. Maybe we would have let the war in Europe run its course and we could have just fought the heathens from across the Pacific. Would we have become involved at all?

Of course being a Jew is not just a religon its also a culture, heritage and since 1967 sinai war being a jew is someone who comes from Israel.

Many if not most of the people Stalin the athiest killed he did so because they did believe in a god and did belong to a religon, and were diametrically opposed to his beliefs, which would make thier deaths associated just a bit to religon.

Swimmer 11-16-2005 12:57 PM

Stalin
 
Godless, classless society............Stalin. :devil:

I think this notion is legally, morally, ethically, spiritually, physically, positively, absolutely undeniably and reliably not true!

Sorry, the OZ was on last night :o

But seriously, Stalin was an athiest...but I don't believe history shows this was a driving force behind his bad behavior.

Gee, I just thought it was a funny story!! Never meant to start a RELIGIOUS WAR!!!

People get all worked up for nothing!! No wonder we are all screwed up!!

The Dad Fisherman 11-16-2005 01:47 PM

The actual bottom line that war is started for is....Stuff (Money, Land, Oil, Chickens)

It doesn't matter what They just want your stuff. They conquer you and take your stuff.

In the crusades they conquer you and make you believe in Christ....so That way the Church can take all your stuff.

The revolutionary war we wanted to keep our stuff and the british wanted their stuff back.

World War II Hitler wanted everybody's stuff.

The civil war the south didn't want to free their stuff (slaves were property so technically they're stuff)

The trojan war someone wanted to get themselves a peice of someone else's Stuff.

It all boils down to either trying to keep your stuff or having someone else trying to take your stuff.

Its just that sometimes religion is a convenient excuse....
