Frivolous posturing should be a crime

First we had Southern Baptist Wiley Drake imploring God to strike down those pesky lawyers at Americans United for Separation of Church and State.

Now, God's found himself on the ugly end of a lawsuit.

Ernie Chambers is suing God. The left-leaning, rabble-rousing Nebraska State Senator says he did it to prove a point about frivolous lawsuits and that "anybody can file a lawsuit against anybody -- even God."

The lawsuit 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."

OK fine. Jeremiah accused God of deceiving him, but I don't recall a suit being filed. Same with Job. I guess in our litigious society, it was bound to happen, but we hope this was all in jest.

As an abused victim, it might be wise for Chambers to request a protective order requiring God to stay 50,000 light years away.

Still, I'm gonna keep a few states between me and the good senator until all this blows over.

Update: God responds...
