The Unprecidented: Chambers v. God

From the fantastic guys over at at the Foreign Policy blog, we learn of a Nebraska State Senator doing the unthinkable: suing God. While the blog post seems to suggest that the Senator is, well, crazy (he was a "barber" before being a senator they tell us), the truth is actually more reasonable. To the varying dismay of neo-Platonists and atheists, this is no modern-day Job, pissed off once again at that proverbial punching bag, the Old Testament God. It turns out, instead, he's just a normal old American lawmaker who's had enough with this litigious society. Here finally is a man unafraid to speak truth to divine power.

Listen, I found the precedent for the Unprecedented. You got pwn3d. You and God. Both of you can just go cry under a blanket together. One doesn't have to be in law school to know that you two are just waiting for the opportunity.
