Nebraska state senator sues God
Injunction sought against Him for allegedly causing deaths, making threats

LINCOLN, Neb. - The defendant in a state senator’s lawsuit is accused of causing untold death and horror and threatening to cause more still. He can be sued in Douglas County, the legislator claims, because He’s everywhere.

State Sen. Ernie Chambers sued God last week. Angered by another lawsuit he considers frivolous, Chambers says he’s trying to make the point that anybody can file a lawsuit against anybody.

Chambers says in his lawsuit that God has made terrorist threats against the senator and his constituents, inspired fear and caused “widespread death, destruction and terrorization of millions upon millions of the Earth’s inhabitants.”

The Omaha senator, who skips morning prayers during the legislative session and often criticizes Christians, also says God has caused “fearsome floods ... horrendous hurricanes, terrifying tornadoes.”

He’s seeking a permanent injunction against the Almighty.

Suit in protest
Chambers said the lawsuit was triggered by a federal suit filed against a judge who recently barred words such as “rape” and “victim” from a sexual assault trial.

So he's going to swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but
the truth to . . . the defendant?

[John 3:16]

What are they going to do if God is found guilty? Throw Him in jail, make God pay money?

Sentence Him to death (just like they did to His Son almost 2000 years ago).

One hundered-fifty years ago, this would have been unheard of; nobody would have had the umitigated gall to pull such a stunt.

Amazing, the unrestrained ego of man.

Does anyone recall that Touched By An Angel episode, for which this town's citizens put the Holy Spirit on trial? God won the case, thanks to the aid of His star angels - particularly Monica (Roma Downey).

Just when I think I've heard it all........................... Man, people are bizarre

[billiefan2000]

as someone who lives in Omaha,this story is being heavily talked about and many people who have become fed up with Chambers antics think he is doing this for attention.

We should pray for Ernie BTW.


John 3:16-17

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

Ernie has been in the Nebraska Unicameral for a very long time. His position has always been Godless.

I always find it interesting over the past few years how he has been volunteering at the Open Door Mission helping in the food line during Thanksgiving. I was always hoping the Holy Spirit might grab him and make a change.

Amen, Buzz!

Did anyone notice that MSNBC blatantly left out his party affiliation? If Mr. Chambers had been a Republican it would have been posted as every other word. This man, Democrat or Republican, has lost his mind!

Amazing ego alright, but also total stupidity of the judge allowing this to go to court. He should be fired just for considering this.

This has got to be a jerk. How does he expect to win, for one? And, just for conversations sake, WHO would pay him the damages IF he did??

Suing the One that can stop your heart beating at any moment, doesn't seem like a real bright move.

I remember that episode.

I was just thinking the same thing and had to laugh.
