A politician in the US is protesting at frivolous law suits in the US courts by launching one himself in which he is suing God.

The suit seeks an injunction against God to stop him and his followers making terrorist threats.

It has been filed in a Nebraska district court by Ernie Chambers, a Senator in the state Senate.

The suit says God "has made and continues to make terroristic threats of grave harm to innumerable persons". It said the threats were credible, given God's history.

It said God and his followers caused "widespread death, destruction and terrorisation of millions upon millions of the Earth's inhabitants", as well as "fearsome floods, egregious earthquakes, horrendous hurricanes, terrifying tornadoes, pestilential plagues, ferocious famines, devastating droughts, genocidal wars, birth defects, and the like".

Chambers's suit was filed in protest at frivolous suits in general, and one in particular. During a trial for sexual assault on Tory Bowen the judge barred the use of certain words, including "rape" and "victim".
