Well, God seems to have a legal team... At least one in the County District Clerks office of Omaha. This story is just to cute to ignore (and kinda disturbing that the clerk would so quickly mix church and state). Anyways the Nebraska State Senator that sued God has a response, and so now his example of a frivolous lawsuit is null and void; why? because someone in an elected office has too much of a sense of humor.
'God' responds to legislator's lawsuit
LINCOLN, Nebraska (AP) -- A legislator who filed a lawsuit against God has gotten something he might not have expected: a response.
One of two court filings from "God" came Wednesday under otherworldly circumstances, according to John Friend, clerk of the Douglas County District Court in Omaha.
"This one miraculously appeared on the counter. It just all of a sudden was here -- poof!" Friend said.
State Sen. Ernie Chambers of Omaha sued God last week, seeking a permanent injunction against the Almighty for making terroristic threats, inspiring fear and causing "widespread death, destruction and terrorization of millions upon millions of the Earth's inhabitants."
Chambers, a self-proclaimed agnostic who often criticizes Christians, said his filing was triggered by a federal lawsuit he considers frivolous. He said he's trying to make the point that anybody can sue anybody.
