The mystery of one response to a lawsuit against God has been solved. Eric Perkins, an attorney in Corpus Christi, Texas, said Friday he filed a response to the lawsuit from Nebraska State Sen. Ernie Chambers. "It's kind of a turn on 'What would Jesus do?'" Perkins said. "I thought to myself, "what would God say?"

"Defendant denies that this or any court has jurisdiction ... over Him any more than the court has jurisdiction over the wind or rain, sunlight or darkness," according to Perkins' response.

"Ernie Chambers is batshit crazy".

I lived in Omaha for a long time and agree with this post. Ernie must be getting bored. or it is close to election. Nebraska has a unicameral form of government and not only is Ernie entertaining, he is dangerous.

The perpetuation of myths continue.

If your myth needs pr help then your deity is your own schizophrenic delusion.

This shows the typical response of religionsists to actions against them: To claim to speak for and to know the mind of their god. While subtle, and in this case meant to be benign, I think that shows the problem with religion: it is a product of human kind and it is manipulated by people for their own gain. There is nothing in scripture saying god said these things. So, unless this person is a prophet or a saint, then he is putting words into god's mouth in order to further his own agenda.

Joke or not, this shows the way religious people are willing to manipulate their religion for their own ends. If this man is claiming to know the mind of god in this innocuous issue, what would he claim if, say, all of the Middle East's oil was concerned? Or a permanent Republic majority?

The word of god. Not.

This note drifted down from the sky and settled on my roof this morning.

Dude, would you please forward this message to everyone down there?

"I want to be left alone and forgotten. I am nobody. I can't do anything. I only know one thing and that is that the beginning of solving any problems you make for yourselves down there is to simply forget forever every single idea you have about me."

God is mythology, everyone trying to put it on trial as if it were more than a figment of regretful old mens imaginations in their twilight years, that's ridiculous.

You're all nuts. Who cares about this anyway. The only people who talk about America becoming a Godless society are the ones who want to make it a theocracy. Enough already. God doesn't belong in court and courts don't belong in churches. Keep them apart and all is well.

Where in heaven did God find a lawyer? I thought lawyers all go to HELL to sit at the right hand of Satan.

There's something about "Dem politician sues God" that SPEAKS VOLUMES.

Reminds me of an old joke...

"A commissar in the Soviet Union went out to one of those state collective farms, grabbed the first worker he came to and said, 'Comrade, how are the crops?' "'Oh,' he said, 'Comrade Commissar, if we could put the potatoes in one pile, they would reach the foot of God.'" "And the commissar said, 'This is the Soviet Union. There is no God.' and he said, 'That's all right, there are no potatoes.'"

a Godless society = communism ...& Dems want a god-less society; therefore...Dems want communism.

Words like COMMUNITY, COMMUNICATION, COMMUNION, and others - equally rejected by the holier-than-thou red staters. The word COMMUNISM shares the same root with those words.

Read Marx's Communist Manifesto sometime. You will find that true communism does not equate to "totalitarian rule" Josef Stalin style. Of course, this means that you would have to educate yourself with factual information - and we can't have that, can we? Have to "perpetuate the propaganda", right Sanjong?

God forbid any right-winger should have to take care of anyone less fortunate than them. "What you do for the least of these, you do for me", said Jesus Christ.

Of course, he wasn't talking to the faux-Christian republicans was he? They worship a different god, don't they? Greed, I believe, is his name.

If we really thought that God had a lot of money, we would be suing Him!
We nag Him in our prayers like helpless little children.
God doesn't show himself because he doasn't want to be pulling out his wallet to bail out his children's every indscretion.
No one may speak for God. If he exists, God chooses wisely to display action over words.

Has this lawyer presented crederntials proving that he is God's choice? Or is he merely poking his nose in.

And is he saying that God isn't a person, (or three!)?
Iff God is like the wind and rain, then He isn't even a living being. Do the religious types go along with that?

everybody hates hypocrites who never miss a Sunday service yet continually judge others.

but what about quiet people of faith, who accept that God is spirit and try and live lives in accordance with the fundamentals of love, forgiveness, hope, charity, faith...

got a few bad words for them, too?

the aetheists on HuffPo are tiring. If God doesn't exist, why do so many CONTINUE to invest time and effort arguing so?

You don't see rational people wasting their time on Huffpo arguing that Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny don't exist. So why do aetheists feel so dang COMPELLED to argue against the existence of God, in whatever form he she or it (spirit) might take.

I have come to believe that it's because the possibility that there truly IS no God, no heaven, no afterlife punishment, no hell for the Republican hypocrites and the greedy businessmen (HMO's and pharmaceutical companies) of this world is an even scarier thought than the possibility that there is a God, god, whatever.

Said John Lennon:

IMAGINE.

Said Me:

WORD

Said God:

I AM

Atheists feel so dang compelled to argue against the existence of god because so-called
people of faith feel so dang compelled to
argue that there IS a god--with not one atom,
not one molecule of physical evidence pointing
to even the possibility that any god of any
type exists. But mostly it's because the true
believers don't stop with simply arguing. They
are using the courts and the legislature, as
well as their vast financial wealth, to push
their lifestyle on all Americans. They demonize
anyone who doesn't take part in their fantastical theatre of the unseen. Anyone with the courage and strength to reject the religion matrix is an agent of the devil. I have no problem with the "quiet people of faith" that you mention. If only there were more of them.
