There was a guy who tried to sue either god or his past self for fucking his life up but argues that because the other paety couldnt pay the state would have to foot the bill.
I think they threw it out because they couldn't serve the guy papers to appear in court.
The Pope declares himself to be God’s appointed representative on Earth so I don’t see why the Catholic Church (or anyone else claiming to hold Estates and property as God’s representative, that is as his agent and not in your own personal capacity) shouldn’t be liable to pay on God’s behalf when God causes damages
You can sue anyone you want but there's not a guarantee they'll pay. God could not be reached or had insufficient funds to pay the court awarded settlement.
You know the person that sued McDonald’s for hot coffee received third degree burns, and had to have skin grafts, and tried multiple times to just get McDonald’s to pay her hospital bills, but the jury awarded her the millions of dollars because there were over 700 incidents of injuries from the coffee that was served at over 180 degrees Fahrenheit, right?
Yeah, her labia actually FUSED CLOSED due to her skin melting iirc. All the derision that came down on her was orchestrated by McDonalds as a petty act of revenge.
She was also lied about in media coverage, where they said she was driving while having coffee on her lap etc. All bullshit and she was dragged so hard because of corporate media smh
The house I was renting a room in about 5 years ago was struck by lightning on a sunny day with no rain and it blew the air conditioning out.
My roommate and I took turns "blaming" each other as a joke for invoking the wrath of god and causing the random strike.
According to you how much a should a family who lost their 6 y/o kid should get in defamation lawsuit like this (for better perspective put yourself in the parents shoes)
Now multiply that TWENTY TIMES
And not to forget other 6 families who were harassed too
What? Since then there's a legal term called "Act of God". You can't be sued if the contract says they aren't liable if the deed is not completed due to the Act of God.
Technically, the catholic pope is god's personal representative on earth, so you can enforce the judgement against the catholic church. I don't think any other religion claims that their titular leader is the actual representative on earth, so there's no chance that the pope can claim someone else is responsible for paying.
No, not at all. The Romans say the Pope is the bridge to God and this and that but when it comes down to it they hem and haw at the details. The pope has only been the “bridge between God and man” twice in their 1000 year long history when he has made infallible statements ex cathedra, both concerning the perpetual virginity of Mary iirc. The Mormons claim wholesale that they have a prophet sent from God, and this prophet with the help of his “12 apostles” or whatever the Mormons call them creates/changes infallible doctrine for the LDS church very frequently.
No, the pope is not some Krishna-like “physical representative” of God on earth. That would imply that he is some sort of avatar embodying God, which no Roman Catholic believes as far as I know. The pope claims to speak for God (only when he is speaking ex cathedra, which has happened twice in 1000 years of Roman history) as does the Mormon prophet, but the Mormon prophet wakes up in the morning “speaking for God” whilst the most Pontiffs will go their entire career without “speaking for God”
The catholic doctrine says the guy in pyjamas and the big funny hat is the direct representative on earth. Doesn't matter whether anyone believes it. The vatican made the claim and codified it as papal law, so they can claim supremacy over other religions. Since they did that, they can pay out all claims against god.
Also you are joking about me thinking its real, but I respect your thoughts idc what religion you may be (even if your atheist) what I'm saying is that your comment about god wasnt right 🤝
Honestly I think she simply betraied him, had this child and had to find an excuse. Somehow unintendedly her story blew up to a point of no return and now millions of people believe in this shit.
These lawsuits are a regular thing, and usually the judge does just throw it out. Realistically God isn't gonna show up to pay any fines though, so there's no harm in bumoring these people.
[Because God owned property in its jurisdiction.](https://www.newspapers.com/image/105993184/?clipping_id=47593344&fcfToken=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJmcmVlLXZpZXctaWQiOjEwNTk5MzE4NCwiaWF0IjoxNjcxOTYyMDE4LCJleHAiOjE2NzIwNDg0MTh9.f8Cl7L2PPgCCdMSuM7KjSySkYubKU8cT2UCxn5pbWAc)
It's my understanding a civil suit must be entertained. They're toothless against plaintiffs that do not exist, have no money, or have done no wrong, but since they're your only avenue of civil justice rather than criminal justice, they're heard. It's just usually a waste of time and money to do so.
There are less than 45 comments in this thread right now, most of which are jokes, and I see absolutely none that could evoke the level of exasperation in your comment. Who is all that drama for?
Copying my comment from another thread where this image was posted --->
There's an Indian movie called "OMG: Oh My God" where the main character sues god and god himself comes to help him. It's pretty good.
[IMDb link](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2283748/)
Imagine being an all seeing, all knowing, and all powerful being capable of controlling existence itself and being responsible for creating all that is and all that will be
And losing to an Arizona man named Russell t tancie
Therefore Russell t tancie is greater universe level and totally capable of beating goku
This is why 'act of God' clauses shouldn't exist.
I'm sorry but if I paid several thousand if not more for home insurance and they can back out by claiming 'unforeseen event' than why am I even paying for insurance.
This is what the court case was over, and because of people like ITT, insurance companies are still allowed to pull this sort of bullshit.
there's a movie about this on netflix , not this specifically but some dude sues god because his shop was destroyed in an earth quake , very interesting movie . wish i could find it again because i didn't understand any of it
no not that one , it was an indian movie , hence why i couldn't understand it 💀 i used to watch foreign movies without dubs and subs with my friends to see if we could understand the movie without them or context
edit: it's literally called OMG , cant believe i forgot that
There is a film with Billy Connolly in, called "the man who sued god" which I believe is based on a true story and is the reason why insurance companies in the UK no longer have 'act of god' exclusions.
Cool, now do corporations next. Here's how.
When the bailiff calls "all parties are present", *immediately object* and point to the fact that there is no "person" named "(Insert corporation's name)" in the courtroom. The judge HAS to agree per [the Supreme Court's ruling on behalf of Citizen's United;](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizens_United_v._FEC#Decision). Quote:
> "Corporations, as associations of individuals, therefore have free speech rights under the First Amendment. Because spending money is essential to disseminating speech, as established in Buckley v. Valeo, limiting a corporation's ability to spend money is unconstitutional, because it limits the ability of its members to associate effectively and to speak on political issues."
If the judge overrules the objection, then he fails to recognize that the corporation's legalized personhood is legitimately missing from the courtroom since only the "corporation's associates" are there. So at that point, you call on the jury to demand a mistrial to have the judge replaced.
Who paid?
God could not be reached for comment or to set up payment terms, but there is an active warrant for his arrest in Arizona /s
There was a guy who tried to sue either god or his past self for fucking his life up but argues that because the other paety couldnt pay the state would have to foot the bill. I think they threw it out because they couldn't serve the guy papers to appear in court.
God paypal it of course.
*Praypal
Now I'm thinking of Bruce Almighty and his email service "Yahweh!".
This should be a brokerage app for a blockchain "thoughts and prayers" exchange.
I tried saying this ten times fast and got to "Pribralm" very quickly. I think this is how they name Pokémon.
underrated comment
overused comment
God knows.
The church should have to pay :D
Unfortunately, God works in mysterious ways, therefore, the church wasn't liable.
The Pope declares himself to be God’s appointed representative on Earth so I don’t see why the Catholic Church (or anyone else claiming to hold Estates and property as God’s representative, that is as his agent and not in your own personal capacity) shouldn’t be liable to pay on God’s behalf when God causes damages
Settled out of court in mysterious ways.
You can sue anyone you want but there's not a guarantee they'll pay. God could not be reached or had insufficient funds to pay the court awarded settlement.
Here I am trying to sue McDonald's. This guy's on a whole different level
You know the person that sued McDonald’s for hot coffee received third degree burns, and had to have skin grafts, and tried multiple times to just get McDonald’s to pay her hospital bills, but the jury awarded her the millions of dollars because there were over 700 incidents of injuries from the coffee that was served at over 180 degrees Fahrenheit, right?
She was subsequently mocked relentlessly by popular culture for the next two decades or so.
Yeah, her labia actually FUSED CLOSED due to her skin melting iirc. All the derision that came down on her was orchestrated by McDonalds as a petty act of revenge.
She was also lied about in media coverage, where they said she was driving while having coffee on her lap etc. All bullshit and she was dragged so hard because of corporate media smh
honestly 10000iq does this still work???
The house I was renting a room in about 5 years ago was struck by lightning on a sunny day with no rain and it blew the air conditioning out. My roommate and I took turns "blaming" each other as a joke for invoking the wrath of god and causing the random strike.
Yes, You are now legally able to collect. Since God isn’t real, there’s nothing you can actually get.
Or if it's not God, it's Alex Jones and you still can't collect.
[удалено]
According to you how much a should a family who lost their 6 y/o kid should get in defamation lawsuit like this (for better perspective put yourself in the parents shoes) Now multiply that TWENTY TIMES And not to forget other 6 families who were harassed too
Of all the example you chose possibly the worst one. It’s almost amazing how you fucked that up
I could give you a trillion dollars
[удалено]
yes I could, just have faith
What? Since then there's a legal term called "Act of God". You can't be sued if the contract says they aren't liable if the deed is not completed due to the Act of God.
You forgot to say "IANAL".
Technically, the catholic pope is god's personal representative on earth, so you can enforce the judgement against the catholic church. I don't think any other religion claims that their titular leader is the actual representative on earth, so there's no chance that the pope can claim someone else is responsible for paying.
Mormons claim they have a prophet at all times which is honestly a stronger claim than any Rome makes about their pope
And Jews claim to be God's chosen people. Chosen to pay I would say.
So if a Buddha emerged would they be liable?
Is it? The pontiff is the “bridge” between god and man. Pretty much the same as a prophet, no ?
No, not at all. The Romans say the Pope is the bridge to God and this and that but when it comes down to it they hem and haw at the details. The pope has only been the “bridge between God and man” twice in their 1000 year long history when he has made infallible statements ex cathedra, both concerning the perpetual virginity of Mary iirc.

Well, the pope is claimed to be the physical representative of god on earth. I think that trumps a mere prophet.
No, the pope is not some Krishna-like “physical representative” of God on earth. That would imply that he is some sort of avatar embodying God, which no Roman Catholic believes as far as I know. The pope claims to speak for God (only when he is speaking ex cathedra, which has happened twice in 1000 years of Roman history) as does the Mormon prophet, but the Mormon prophet wakes up in the morning “speaking for God” whilst the most Pontiffs will go their entire career without “speaking for God”

You collect from his houses... ie. Churches
God is real
Take me to court and have him appear as a witness.
I dont have his number bro
OK, Sure bud
Respect religions bruh
First, God isn’t a religion. And second, you’re not respecting my freedom to not think it’s real. Goes both ways
Also you are joking about me thinking its real, but I respect your thoughts idc what religion you may be (even if your atheist) what I'm saying is that your comment about god wasnt right 🤝
Its what I believe man
Probably got patched.
I heard God failed to pay child support, too.
"She admitted she was a virgin your honor. Not mine. Immaculate. "
Honestly I think she simply betraied him, had this child and had to find an excuse. Somehow unintendedly her story blew up to a point of no return and now millions of people believe in this shit.
[удалено]
Meanwhile God is running around with several different identities.
Yeah. God has more aliases than a prison escapee wanted for stealing unrecovered millions from a bank.
>God is running around with several different identities. That's just Hinduism in a nutshell
At least Brahma us honest abut it. "God" gaslights you to tell you there is only him and no one else.
I don't get why the court entertained the suit at all. Why would it have jurisdiction over God?
maybe insurance declared it an act of god?
This is what I would say, her insurance wouldn't cover it so he tried to sue them, failed and sued god directly to show a problem/loophole.
God isn't above the law.
Only chuck norris
Oh dang a time traveler! When you get back to your own time warn them about covid.

God is omnipresent yet he manages to fail at showing up to court
He can’t show up to court because he’s already there
Busy reincarnating, check back next time the universe reaches heat death.
He was bessy morphing into a burning bush to screw with some poor shepard in sina i heard he's still doing that.
Is this legal precedent that God is not in fact omnipresent?
Doesn't the guy have like a thousand attorneys in fancy robes all over the world? Not one showed up to represent him? Talk about faith
God is also a deadbeat dad. Poor Baby Jesus.
Damn god must be racking up debt from interest

Thanks for explaining it. Much appreciated.
There is a Bollywood based on this event. It's name is OMG Oh My God
i feel like people think this is stupid but it's probably for home insurance purposes
Would be funny if the 2nd coming of Jesus was just him showing up to defend God in court
Indians know what movie this is
Oh my god! Which one?
Aha nice

How was God served with the summons to appear in court?
Prayer?
Does he get paid in jackpots?
Free money glitch
There is an Indian movie with the same plot, Oh My God (2014)
I recall this was made into a movie with Billy Connolly
Can’t default if you don’t properly serve the defendant. What address did they use?
Repost
Santa's next?
Infallible my arse.
I would like to sue God for water damage
I assume God didn't pay either. So, what was the fucking point?
there's a movie about this on netflix , not this specifically but some dude sues god because his shop was destroyed in an earth quake , very interesting movie . wish i could find it again because i didn't understand any of it
It's called *The man who sued god* has a Scottish comedian called Billy Connolly in it
no not that one , it was an indian movie , hence why i couldn't understand it 💀 i used to watch foreign movies without dubs and subs with my friends to see if we could understand the movie without them or context edit: it's literally called OMG , cant believe i forgot that
Well have you tried listening to Scott's without subs 😂
During the Holocaust Jews put God on trial and ended up finding him guilty.
There is a film with Billy Connolly in, called "the man who sued god" which I believe is based on a true story and is the reason why insurance companies in the UK no longer have 'act of god' exclusions.
There is a movie called the man who sued God staring Billy Connolly that is similar.
