Keeping Jesus Out of Our Courts

This past week, a court in Jefferson County, Alabama had a very special potential juror.  Jesus Christ!

It turns out that a 59-year old woman had changed her name to Jesus Christ and was summoned for jury duty.  Sadly, she wasn’t chosen. 

Personally, I’m torn on if I would want Jesus on a jury judging me.  One one hand, I’d appreciate his forgiving and thoughtful nature.  On the other, I’d be worried that he’d go and curse me for something lame like not giving him some fruit.

For those of you too lazy to read the article, I’ll give you the best part:

“Efforts to reach Christ today were unsuccessful.”

Go figure.

  1. I should change my name to Jesus Christ. It’s pretty much guaranteed to get you out of jury duty every time, and I’d still get to keep my same initials.

  2. I’m just going to start calling you that.

    Besides. You’re both scientists!

  3. Jesus, what’s your middle name going to be?

  4. You know, cuz I though it was “Jesus ‘H.’ Christ.”

  5. Oh God….

  6. @ Honey – I’m pretty sure it’s “fukken.”
