From the Law Firm of Michael, Gabriel and Raphael

We earlier reported the efforts of one State Sen. Ernie Chambers to bring a lawsuit against God (see "But All of the Best Defense Lawyers Are in Hell"). This was his attempt to raise awareness concerning the filing of frivolous lawsuits in Nebraska. Well, we're not certain but apparently the ghost of Raymond Burr had a hand in making two court filings this week...on God's behalf! (see story).

In the filings God holds that He is "immune from earthly laws" and the earthly court system "lacks jurisdiction". They also hold that He isn't responsible for most human oppression and suffering siting "free will" which is His "greatest gift".

Drat that blasted "free will" defense. I doubt the courts will buy it though. Most of all suffering in the world is caused by people. War, famine, crime, oppression, the mismanagement of resources AFTER natural disasters all by people. However they usually want to blame anyone but themselves. It's either God or us...or the government. But then they blame the government when it rains. Rule of thumb if it rains frogs, it's usually the Other Guy.
