Mr Shoshan claims he was treated 'harshly and not nicely' by the deityhttp://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/man-restraining-order-god-a7016791.html
"An Israeli man has petitioned for a restraining order against God, claiming the almighty has been particularly unkind to him over the years and that the police are unable to do anything.
The man, named by Israeli news site NRG as David Shoshan, represented himself at a court hearing in Haifa, a port city in the north of Israel. The report noted that God was not present to defend himself.
The court heard God had been particularly unkind to Mr Shoshan, treating him "harshly and not nicely", though no specific details were given about what exactly had happened to make him feel this way.
Mr Shoshan claimed he made several attempts to contact police to report Gods alleged crimes, and that patrol cars had been sent to his house on 10 occasions.

(19,705 posts)Omnipresent means being everywhere, all the time. To say that one could find a place where the omnipresent isn't omnipresent, especially a place that the omnipresent deity created, sounds like a sheep rationalizing going into the wolfs den because the wolf isn't home.

(38,437 posts)... the details are a bit fuzzy.
I'll take your word for it.

(19,705 posts)If one is given omnipresence, then there isn't a place one cannot be.

As they say, stick with what you know.
