Suing God














According to the La Nacion newspaper, Nebraskan senator, Ernie Chambers, is suing God.
Chambers is accusing God of having caused calamitous catastrophes, resulting in wide-spread death and destruction.
Since God surely was not present during the hearing, Chambers calls upon representatives of “various religions, denominations and branches of worship who, notoriously, admit to being agents of the defendant and speak on his behalf”.
Chambers is considered to be the most open and passionate black leader in his state and is known as the “angriest black man in Nebraska”.
The plaintiff says he has made “reasonable efforts” to contact the defendant, calling out “come out, come out, wherever you are”, but without success.
The senator accuses God of having caused “fearsome floods, egregious earthquakes, horrendous hurricanes, terrifying tornadoes, pestilential plagues, ferocious famines, devastating droughts, genocidal wars”.
In light of all this, the senator says that God “has manifested neither compassion nor remorse”, proclaiming that the defendant “will laugh” when calamity comes.
Chambers, who has been a Nebraskan senator since 1970, assures that “the defendant’s past behavior and history show that his terroristic threats are credible”.
He is asking the judge to file the suit against God, but without asking him first to permanently stop his “destructive actions and terroristic threats”.
The senator, who does not participate in the morning prayer sessions at the Congressional building, and who frequently criticizes Christians, pointed out since God is everywhere, he can be sued in the United States. He is filing for a permanent restraining order against the Almighty.
