Nebraska Senator Sues God

By: Associated Press

LINCOLN, Neb. - A Nebraska lawmaker has filed a lawsuit against God.

State Senator Ernie Chambers accuses God of causing untold death and horror and threatening to cause more. Chambers says God can be sued in Douglas County, Nebraska, because He's everywhere.

The Omaha senator, who skips morning prayers during the legislative session and often criticizes Christians, blames God for natural disasters and is seeking a permanent injunction against Him.

Angered by another lawsuit he considers frivolous, Chambers says he's trying to make the point that anybody can file a lawsuit against anybody.
