State Senator Ernie Chambers Sues God

OMAHA, Neb - State Senator Ernie Chambers is suing God. The lawsuit, which was filed on Friday in Douglas County Court, seeks a permanent injunction ordering God to cease certain harmful activities and the making of terroristic threats.
The lawsuit admits God goes by all sorts of alias, names, titles and designations and it also recognizes the fact that the defendant is ?Omnipresent?.
In the lawsuit Chambers says he?s tried to contact God numerous times, ?Plaintiff, despite reasonable efforts to effectuate personal service upon Defendant (?Come out, come out, wherever you are?) has been unable to do so.?
The suit also requests that the court given the ?peculiar circumstances? of this case waive personal service. It says being Omniscient, the plaintiff assumes God will have actual knowledge of the action. The lawsuit accuses God ?of making and continuing to make terroristic threats of grave harm to innumerable persons, including constituents of Plaintiff who Plaintiff has the duty to represent.?
It says God has caused, ?fearsome floods, egregious earthquakes, horrendous hurricanes, terrifying tornadoes, pestilential plagues, ferocious famines, devastating droughts, genocidal wars, birth defects, and the like.?
The suit also says God has caused, ?calamitous catastrophes resulting in the wide-spread death, destruction and terrorization of millions upon millions of the Earth?s inhabitants including innocent babes, infants, children, the aged and infirm without mercy or distinction.?
Chambers also says God ?has manifested neither compassion nor remorse, proclaiming that Defendant ?will laugh? when calamity comes.
Chambers asks for the court to grant him a summary judgement. He says as an alternative, he wants the judge to set a date for a hearing as ?expeditiously? as possible and enter a permanent injunction enjoining God from engaging in the types of deleterious actions and the making of terroristic threats described in the lawsuit.
We tried to reach Senator Chambers to find out what prompted him to file this suit now. But so far we?ve had no luck contacting him.

Yeah, this sounds crazy. But as a resident of Omaha, I can say Mr. Chambers has done a lot of good for the black community in North Omaha, and this article does not portray him in that light. Nor does it mention that this is in response to some of our legislators time wasting with frivolous topics, while our all important school district controversy is still unsolved. Mind you, his idea of segregation by district is nuts.

Anyway, he's one of our States more interesting profiles, and I can at least defend him for that.

this article explains the reason why he decided to sue God:

IMO they should have fired that judge, no reason to blame God for this

I love how people think they can sue entities not under US jurisdiction. Iran, God, what next?

lol

LULZ.

he is making a statemebnt about fradulent lawsuits. in the US Ayou can sue anyone over anything and it has become epidemic proportions.

no one is guilty of anything
accidents do not happen
someone else is always to blame

that is the new american credo

Laugh Out Lord!
