God is likely to take legal action.
Defamation, Libel and Slander
Generally speaking:
Defamation is the issuance of a false statement about another person, which causes that person to suffer harm.
Slander involves the making of defamatory statements by a transitory (non-fixed) representation, usually an oral (spoken) representation.
Libel involves the making of defamatory statements in a fixed or medium, such as a magazine or newspaper.
The typical elements of a cause of action for defamation are:
A false and defamatory statement concerning another;
The unprivileged publication of the statement to a third party;
If the defamatory matter is of public concern, fault amounting at least to negligence on the part of the publisher; and
Damage to the plaintiff.
Defamation of Character
"Damage to the plaintiff"? Um, has the plaintiff been deposed?
Clearly your honor, the plaintiff in this matter, GOD, created the defendant, and provided Mr. Hawkings with a brain. A most powerful brain indeed, and so, your honor, to suggest that GOD erred in making Mr. Hawkings brain, a brain able to conceive of the universe devoid of The Almighty, is absurd; or, your honor if GOD does not exist, the matter is moot.
Furthermore, your honor, Suggesting GOD, who if HE does exist is not omnipotent is in the eys and mind of true believers heresy. Worse! Indeed worse your honor as she who hopes to earn standing in this matter presumes to know HIS will.
It is clear the matter is moot, your honor, without either prove of HIS existence or a depositon of HIS interest in the matter, and your honor, notwithstanding the arrogance of the girl who alleges to be from California, we move dismisal and that Miss CG pay court costs and attorney fees.
Thank you, your honor.
