Indian Judge Summons Hindu Gods to Appear in Court
This is almost too funny to be true, but it appears that a judge in India has issued a summons to the Hindu gods Ram and Hanuman in order to end a decades long lawsuit involving land surrounding a temple dedicated to them.
Judge Singh sent out two notices to the deities, but they were returned as the addresses were found to be “incomplete”.
Local say the temple belongs to the gods. This prompted him to put out adverts in local newspapers summoning the gods.
“You failed to appear in court despite notices sent by a peon and later through registered post. You are herby directed to appear before the court personally”, Judge Singh’s notice said.
Can you imagine what would happen here in America if a judge ordered God/Jesus to appear in court to settle a dispute over something either one is alleged to have said or done? I bet people would be falling down in the streets at the audacity.

I’d love to see it. I wonder who would have the audacity to appear as his/their representative?
