Boy, is 'god' in trouble now...
    #7420413 - 09/17/07 04:48 PM (16 years, 4 months ago)

He's got Nebraska Senator Ernie Chambers on his ass. Its about time god be held accountable for all his misdeeds...especially the ones that have matching first letter adjectives!

Quote:

ERNIE SUES GOD

Nebraska State Senator Ernie Chambers has filed a lawsuit against God. He says he just wants to make the point that the constitution allows a lawsuit to be filed for any reason.

The action seeks a "permanent injunction ordering Defendant to cease certain harmful activities and the making of terroristic threats."

The Plaintiff (Chambers) is identified as "the duly elected and serving State Senator from the 11th Legislative District in Omaha, Nebraska."

The petition states that the "Defendant (also known by various aliases, titles, names, designations) is present in all places at the same time ("Omnipresent")' is the admitted perpetrator of the deleterious acts complained of herein."

Among the Claims for Relief: "Defendant has made and continues to make terroristic threats of grave harm to innumerable persons, including constituents of Plaintiff whom Plaintiff has the duty to represent.

Defendant directly and proximately has caused, inter alia (among other things), fearsome floods, egregious earthquakes, horrendous hurricanes, terrifying tornados, pestilential plagues, ferocious famines, devastating droughts, genocidal wars, birth defects and the like."

Senator Chambers says, "This is a way to show that anyone can sue anyone including God. It's an object lesson too. It demonstrates that the mere filing of a lawsuit doesn't guarantee a win."

Creighton law professor Mike Fenner says, "It's a frivolous lawsuit but not one that's really going to cost anyone much."

Chambers says he decided to file the lawsuit in part as a response to other lawmakers who have tried to prevent lawsuits from being filed over the years and in part due to a high profile sexual assault case in Lancaster County. In that case, there is an ongoing clash over a judge's order preventing the use of the word "rape" and other words at trial.

The petition was filed in Douglas County District Court. Click here for a pdf copy of the document.

If he doesn't show for court then he will have a warrant issued on his sorry ass just like everyone else.

:lol: God must have anticipated this.  That's why his devotees now say, "God resides inside you.  He is in your heart.  You are God."

Well, God being a part of us, or we being a part of God, does factor into it... I mean, a person has rights over their own body, don't they?  Why doesn't God have rights over the creation which is a part of Him?

I just think it's funny that this Chambers fellow somewhat resembles Father God.  At least, Bruce Almighty set the precedent for this when Morgan Freeman, a black man, was cast as God.

Maybe God truly is becoming multi-cultural... :lol:

It seems god doesn't know what one part of his creation is doing to the other parts of his creation.  He is nowhere to be seen.:rolleyes:

And here's where the analogy fails. If God exists at all, then he/she/it is much higher than we are and no metaphors or facts can completely uncover their existence.

What I'm putting forth is this: we have our own volition, and the mystifying part of it all is that while we are a part of God in a sense, we are also separate. What I mean is, physically we are one/inter-connected (as there is always a fluid exchange between ourselves and our environment) but without separate spirits, or at least emerging consciousnesses/identities, we would never be able to recognize the possibility of there being a God at all.

The Hebrew scripture makes excellent reference to this:

"They know nothing, they understand nothing. They walk about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken. I said, 'You are "gods"; you are all sons of the Most High.' But you will die like mere men; you will fall like every other ruler." -Psalm 82

And once God imparts a spirit, a consciousness like his own, that can't really be taken back. Then that person has control over what they do/say and is just as accountable for their actions as God is for His: thus you have catastrophe when such a great gift is violated.

Note in the picture below, it only looks like a fan behind his head.



In reality, it is a halo, a sign from God that his man is very holy. There are NO coincidences!
