A Cosmically Controversial Technicality

Apparently, Nebraska State Senator Ernie Chambers is considering an appeal.

Months ago, Senator Chambers filed a lawsuit against God. 

He said God has made terroristic threats against the senator and his constituents in Omaha, inspired fear and caused "widespread death, destruction and terrorization of millions upon millions of the Earth's inhabitants."

Day before yesterday, however, the judge dismissed Senator Chambers' case.  The defendant, said Judge Marlon Polk, has no legal address, so the proper papers cannot be served and the defendant cannot be properly notified of the lawsuit.

While he's not sure if he'll proceed, Senator Chambers, a law school graduate that never took the bar exam, is not satisfied with the ruling.

The court, Mr Chambers said, had acknowledged the existence of God and "a consequence of that acknowledgment is a recognition of God's omniscience".

"Since God knows everything," he reasoned, "God has notice of this lawsuit."
