Court Summons Hindu Gods to Testify; Monkey God Pleads 'The Fifth"

The BBC is reporting that a judge in India has summoned two Hindu gods, Ram and Hanuman, to help resolve a property dispute. Judge Sunil Kumar Singh has demanded that the Hindu Gods Ram and Hanuman appear in person to settle a 20 year debate over 1.4 acres of land between two temples of the gods in question. The judge has sent letters to each deity asking them to appear to settle the dispute.

I can not make this stuff up.

My question is this: Did he send the letters postage due? Is that why the honored deities refused his summons?

This is the ridiculous world in which we live.

    Fascinating. The same sort of thing happened to me, only it was between my brother and I regarding how we shared our bedroom.

    Maybe the deities' mothers can help resolve the issue?
