Should we all take God to court?

[quote]Claims deal made for divine protection from evil, 'instead he gave me to Satan' who caused murder

A man serving a 20-year sentence for murder has been rebuffed so far in his effort to sue God for breach of contract by failing to protect him from evil and turning him over to Satan who encouraged him to kill.

Pavel Mircea, 40, filed his lawsuit in the western Romanian town of Timisoara, charging God with failure to fulfill an agreement Micera alleged was made at his baptism.

"He was supposed to protect me from all evils and instead he gave me to Satan who encouraged me to kill," he charged.

In the lawsuit, Mircea listed "God, resident in heaven, represented in Romania by the Orthodox church" as the defendant, according to the Romanian daily Evenimentul Zilei.

God's alleged dereliction, according to Mircea including fraud, breach of trust, abuse of a position of authority and misappropriation of goods ? all crimes, the plaintiff noted, under the Romanian criminal code.

Micera said that God had accepted his prayers and sacrificial offerings without providing any services in return.

Thus far, Micera is not getting an answer to his prayer to the court for relief, either.

The Timisoara public prosecutor rejected the case, saying God is not a person in the eyes of the law and does not have a legal address where he could be served with court papers.

Micera may get off lucky if his case ends there. As WND reported, Italian atheist Luigi Cascioli was ordered to pay a $1,900 judgment after a court ruled he had filed a fraudulent suit against an Italian priest for saying Jesus Christ existed.

Cascioli contended the cleric violated a law that forbids deceiving the public. The atheist said the priest, who had publicly criticized him for casting doubt on the truth of the gospels, had no evidence Jesus ever existed. Specifically, he claimed two Italian laws had been broken: the "abuse of popular belief'' ? which amounts to intentionally deceiving someone ? and "impersonation" ? meaning one gains by giving a false name to someone.[/quote]

Wouldn't it be great if God was cited as a waitness.

Even better if he appeared----and affirmed, instead of taking the oath.

Murderer or not..........he kinda has a point.

I swear by 'myself' that I will tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

The trouble is, if we are able to sue a figment of someone else's imagination, then who is next in the dock? Santa? The Tooth Fairy?

Yeah, where would it end?

Still, Bibles for the 'Fictional' section in bookshops, I say!

Amen to that, Brother Sam.
