Awesome. Does the “Einstein and the professor” story prove that God exists?

A legend on top of a legend:

One blog added a second layer of urban legend to this legend. They wrote 26 “funny facts” including:

Item 1: “It is impossible to lick your elbow.”
Item 26: “Over 75% of people who read this will try to lick their elbow.” This was followed by one version of the Einstein story.

I have personally verified item 1 by testing my tongue on my own elbow. But I cannot prove that it is true for everyone.

Item 2 could not be verified without a large study. But I seriously doubt that it is true. 4
