Man Seeks Restraining Order Against God! - Yazata - May 6, 2016
An Israeli man from the city of Haifa has petitioned a magistrate's court for a restraining order against God, who the man says is harassing and persecuting him.

The minutes of the hearing state that God did not appear and was not present, though the reporter suggests that maybe God was present, but was just exercising his right to remain silent.
The judge turned down the request, suggesting that the petitioner needed help, but not the kind the court could give.

God doesn't abide by restraining orders. He's abit of a stalker, who pursues you for life once he sets his eyes on you. The only respite is a 8 by 10 padded room with regular doses of Haldol. That or an armed compound in the woods with a cult of devoted followers.
