Can’t drag God into court. Says so in Job. ;)
If you read the article, you would see that it's her father:
"Court officials say a Birmingham woman who changed her name to Jesus Christ didn't live up to it when she reported for jury duty this week. The woman, previously named Dorothy Lola Killingworth, was sent to Judge Clyde Jones's courtroom for a criminal case Monday.
"Court officials told The Birmingham News Tuesday that the 59-year-old was excused because she was disruptive and kept asking questions instead of answering them.
"Efforts to reach Christ for comment were unsuccessful.
"Court administrator Sandra Turner said people there were shocked when the woman insisted her name was Jesus Christ and some potential jurors laughed out loud when her name was called."
I thought my name was “Jesus Christ” when I was a kid, my Dad kept yelling at me, “Jesus Christ, how long are you going to be in there?”
I go to all the trouble of posting the article, and you want me to read it too?
And the cat was named “Damn It”?
One day my Dad yelled, “Dammit, get in here.” And I told him, “No I’m Jesus Christ, Dammit is my brother.”
How would you like to be the defendandt and learn that Jesus Christ is going to be on your jury? LOL
Could be worse. You could draw Optimus Prime or Staff Sergeant Max Fightmaster.
Maybe I should change my last name to ‘Forbes’.... ;)
It’s amazing what you can find with FOIA requests.
Besides, who would serve the subpoena?
Look up Star Wars characters in various phone directories. People have been changing their names to Obi Kenobi, Han Solo, Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader for the past 30 years.
And they don't have a prayer of finding her.
