In the Name of God

This Woman Is Suing All Gay People On Earth On God's Behalf. Yes, Really.



Identifying herself as an ambassador for God and Jesus Christ, a Nebraska woman has filed a federal lawsuit against all homosexual people on the planet for breaking “religious and moral laws.”

Sylvia Ann Driskell of Auburn argues in a seven-page, handwritten petition delivered to the U.S. District Court of Omaha that “homosexuality is a sin and that the homosexuals know it is a sin to live a life of homosexuality,” according to the Lincoln Journal Star. “Why else would they have been hiding in the closet(?)”

The 66-year-old, who is representing herself in the lawsuit, cites Webster’s Dictionary as well as a series of Bible passages in her letter, which is riddled with spelling and punctuation errors, the Omaha World Herald reports. She challenges U.S. District Judge John M. Gerrard to not “judge God to be a lier (sp),” and slams gay people as “liers (sp), deceivers and thieves” in the case, filed simply as Driskell v. Homosexuals.

“I never thought that I would see a day in which our Great Nation or our Great State of Nebraska would become so compliant to the complicity of some people(’s) lewd behavior,” she notes. “It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed because his compassions fail not.”

The court has not issued a summons for Driskell, according to NBC. Of course, that hasn’t stopped a number of high-profile gay writers from sharing tongue-in-cheek responses to the lawsuit.

Steven Payne of The Daily Kos said he and his husband, Brian, would be “liquidating our assets” ahead of a legal ruling in the case, which he jokingly suggested is a matter for the Supreme Court.

“We anticipate the restitution ordered to this woman will take us down to our very last penny,” he quipped.

Fascinating.
Some people are so uneducated and uninformed about the very principles on which America was founded, they actually beleive a judge can rule on wether or not homosexuality is a sin.
Not a crime, a sin. This is very important : it show that this woman is totally unaware about the non-estabishment clause, to the point where she thinks a judge can condemn people for not observing the law of God.
If someone would ask her about the 1st Amendment, I assume she would answer : “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. You shall have no other gods before[ me." :rolleyes:

I don't think think she hates gays. She's just ignorant.
And I don't think this is an extreme case. I believe there are quite many people that are as uninformed as she is.


You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.
Exodus, 20 ; 7
 
So one woman out of 7 billion human beings is doing something absurd and it is news worthy and makes your point how?

Yes it is because what she does and the reason why she does it tells a lot about how many people think, how many people are uninformed about the very basic principles on which America was founded...

Even if you're an atheist you should still feel sorry for God and Jesus for all the bad representation they have on Earth. What point is it being a Christian if you find the path of Jesus to be inconvenient? This woman is as true to the Lord as her neighbors from Kansas.
