Pa. Judge Won't Let 'God' Sign License
READING, Pa. (AP) - Regardless of how he had signed a stack of other documents, from bank records to income tax returns, a judge rejected a man's request to be allowed to legally sign his driver's license as "God."
Berks County Senior Judge Forrest G. Schaeffer ruled Thursday that the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation could require the man to sign his given name, Paul S. Sewell, and said documents he had signed in the past didn't prove differently.
"The so-called name you want to apply is rather a series of scribbled marks and don't establish any name at all," Schaeffer said. Sewell, 40, said he would appeal.
Sewell said he is a self-employed bond enforcement agent and began using the signature because fugitives always prefaced their comments with, "Oh, God," when he captured them.
Well, when you are being silly, you've got expect to be treated accordingly.
I don't care what the guy calls himself, but -
O'Sullivan knew in his heart he was divine. He hadn't done any miracles as yet, but his heart and soul felt huge. There was a sense of some destiny, some mission, about him. It was undeniable. And, every single time he walked into the Donahue's Lounge, the bartender would yell
"Christ!, you again?"

Bloom. Are you the Messiah?
We all are, Buddy, we all are.

I only accept the role if I don't have to get crucified.
Why doesn't the guy just legally change his name to God and tell the judge to kiss his patootie....?
