When Gerald Mayo sued Satan—

By Jack Brummet, Jurisprudence Ed.

Someone—Gerald Mayo—actually did sue The Great Deceiver.  It is documented in a book by Alex Ruskell (A Weekly Guide to Being a Model Law Student).  

My lawyer friends can find the case at Mayo v. Satan and His Staff 54 F.R.D. 282 (1971). I guess you have to file multiple suits to be found a vexatious litigant?

The Lake Of Fire

A man died and found himself in limbo, waiting in a long, long line for judgment. He noticed that some souls were allowed to march right through the pearly gates. Others were led over to Satan, who threw them into a lake of fire. Every so often, instead of hurling a condemned soul into the lake of fire, Satan would toss him or her off to one side.

After watching Satan do this several times, the men's curiosity got the better of him. He strolled over The Great Deceiver:+

"Excuse me, there, Your Darkness," he said. "I'm waiting in line for judgment, and I couldn't help wondering why you toss some people off to the side instead of flinging them into the fires of hell with the others?"

"Ah," Satan said with a grin. "Those people are from Seattle. I'm just letting them dry out so they'll burn."

"Who has killed more, God or Satan?"

This is the fascinating question another blogspot dweller delved into last summer.



Believe it or not, this was a more or less scholarly endeavor! Anyhow, check out the story in Steve Well's Dwindling In Unbelief blog.
