Nebraska Senator Sues God

Yes folks, the title is correct. A State Senator in Nebraska has actually filled suit against God. According to Fox News:

Nebraska Democratic State Senator Ernie Chambers has decided to go straight to the top in an effort to stop natural disasters from befalling the world.

Apparently on Friday September 14, 2007 Chambers filed a lawsuit against God in Douglas County Court. The lawsuit seeks an injunction against God to get Him to cease certain harmful activities and the making of terroristic threats.


Chambers says he isn't suing God because he has any kind of beef with the deity. He says the suit is to fight possible laws restricting the filing of frivolous lawsuits. Chambers tells KPTM FOX 42 News that his lawsuit is in response to bills brought forth by other state senators to try and stop lawsuits from being filed.


Oh really? Wouldn't this be a reason to support restrictions on frivolous lawsuits? In my opinion, it is long overdue in putting a stop against these kind of frivolous lawsuits.

  1. I'm shocked to discover that the senator actually pulled this stunt in opposition to laws that would restrict frivolous lawsuits. Talk about ironic. From glancing at the headline alone, you'd think he was trying to one-up someone on the most pointless suit filed ever...never mind that there are a dozen things wrong with his logic (and let's not begin with the legalities - what exact part of the new law is he trying to disprove? The one that says you can't sue a non-corporeal entity?)

  2. What the heck? Everybody in this country is citing god's will. According to his track record he's not doing a good job, delivering us from evil.

    If he was an employee with such a lousy performance, you'd fire him. So it's only right to sue his almighty ass.
