Legal case against God dismissed
BBC NEWS | Americas | Legal case against God dismissed.
A US judge has thrown out a case against God, ruling that because the defendant has no address, legal papers cannot be served.
He sought a permanent injunction to prevent the “death, destruction and terrorisation” caused by God.
“Given that this court finds that there can never be service effectuated on the named defendant this action will be dismissed with prejudice,” Judge Polk wrote in his ruling.
Mr Chambers sued God last year. He said God had threatened him and the people of Nebraska and had inflicted “widespread death, destruction and terrorisation of millions upon millions of the Earth’s inhabitants”.
The court, Mr Chambers said, had acknowledged the existence of God and “a consequence of that acknowledgement is a recognition of God’s omniscience”.
“Since God knows everything,” he reasoned, “God has notice of this lawsuit.”
