http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/nebraska-woman-sues-all-homosexuals-liers-thieves-n354301

A Nebraska woman identifying herself as the "ambassador" for plaintiffs "God and His Son, Jesus Christ," is suing all homosexuals on Earth for breaking "religious and moral laws," according to court records filed Tuesday.

In the suit, entered into the docket as Driskell v. Homosexuals, Sylvia Ann Driskell, 66, of Auburn, Nebraska, asks in a seven-page, neatly handwritten petition (PDF) that U.S. District Judge John M. Gerrard decide once and for all whether homosexuality is or isn't a sin.

Oh sweet Lord (sigh).  The world has seen theocracies and inquisitions before so why are some folk so keen on wanting them back again.

It's hard not to laugh, but it's very sad, really.

Simple enough, really. Everyone assumes they'll be the inquisitor and not the inquisitee.
April 22, 2015, the day of my first face to face pass in gender neutral clothes and no makeup. It may be months to the next one, but I'm good with that!

Being transgender is just a phase. It hardly ever starts before conception and always ends promptly at death.

It makes me wonder what happened to the separation of church at state.  I suppose I shouldn't be surprised someone had the nerve to file this in court. :icon_lemon:

Oddly this leaves out the part where she sued anyone who eats shrimp.

Luckily I eat prawns!

I think she missed the memo when same sex married couples have the same marriage rights under a Supreme Court ruling not too long ago.

If she is suing on behalf of God, can we counter sue? And if we did, would the case get tossed because the defendant has no access to legal counsel? ;D

Yeah these are the same kind morons that use to burn people to a stake.  This is the reason why religion is dying.  People are fed up with self appointed moral judges who are probably mentally ill.  I don't believe in the bible because it was written by man and I don't trust man.  Show me a bible that written by the hand of God and I'll follow it otherwise it's just BS.

Can I remind folks that we have people of many religious backgrounds here, and we need to keep it a welcoming place for all of them.

I'm wondering if I should have put a note to keep it civil. When I posted it I did not mean any religous offense.

Sadly it is not the religion itself just people that try to twist the meanings to their own ends. Such as the karan from what I understand is all about peace yet some factions of said religion are not peaceful at all.

What we need in the world is love and peace guess that slogan was right in the 60's. Yet as history keeps repeating people use the religion card to promote their ideal world and if you don't fit well I guess you are damned or something.

Fyi I don't wish any ill will to the spiritual that follow any religion just some the twist the meaning and intent of religion to their own gains. Being as if I recall many other parts of the bible indeed mention loving every one not just the straight or whatever thing of the day.
For every day that stings better days it brings.
For every road that ends another will begin.

From a song called "Master of the Wind"" by Man O War.

I my opinions hurt anyone it is NOT my intent.  I try to look at things in a neutral manner but we are all biased to a degree.  If I ever post anything wrong PLEASE correct me!  Human after all.
