Max: Nebraska State Senator Sues God

via: Wired Threat Level

Nebraska State Senator Ernie Chambers filed suit against God Friday, asking a court to order the Almighty and his followers to stop making terrorist threats.

The suit (.pdf), filed in a Nebraska district court, contends that God, along with his followers of all persuasions, "has made and continues to make terroristic threats of grave harm to innumerable persons." Those threats are credible given God's history, Chambers' complaint says.

Chambers, in a fit of alliteration, also accuses God of causing "fearsome floods, egregious earthquakes, horrendous hurricanes, terrifying tornadoes, pestilential plagues, ferocious famines, devastating droughts, genocidal wars, birth defects, and the like."

Likewise the suit accuses God of having his chroniclers "disseminate in written form, said admissions, throughout the Earth in order to inspire fear, dread, anxiety, terror and uncertainty, in order to coerce obedience to Defendant's will."

what exactly does he expect to get from God by suing him?

Considering all the crap done in God's name and done at the behest of God - it's about time he paid for his crimes!

Is God above the law? I think not!

Please! Please, someone, anyone! Please call God to the witness stand in open court! I'll be happy whether he shows or not!

If only the loons showed - that would make a heck of a point, wouldn't it?
