Pondering Pastor

Two days ago, I noted the lawsuit against God by a Nebraska state representative. It seems that God has answered. Someone has a good sense of humor! I think that courthouse might be an enjoyable place to work.

The whole story is here. Excerpts reprinted below.

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.

His response argues that the defendant is immune from some earthly laws and the court lacks jurisdiction.It adds that blaming God for human oppression and suffering misses an important point.

“I created man and woman with free will and next to the promise of immortal life, free will is my greatest gift to you,” according to the response, as read by Friend.

There was no contact information on the filing, although St. Michael the Archangel is listed as a witness, Friend said.
