Mr Pavell was p*ssed off, and heavily so. Rightly so too, I assume, and neither did he have the slightest inclination to shoulder responsibility for being over his head in sh*t. Thus he decided to point a finger, a huge finger at Someone very important, in an attempt to wriggle himself out of serving a 40 year sentence for murder.

But who is this Mircea Pavell, and what exactly has this obscure Romanian’s predicament to do with us? Not much with yours’s truly, by the way, whom, besides being agnostic view the world through the lens of apathy. But uncannily much with you who are reading here.

So what about it? Every man and his neighbour, these days, are full of sh*t, and most of you are more than willing to point a finger at someone else, unwilling to shoulder either responsibility, or blame. And unlike mr Pavell, most of you will initiate an argument with the first available person, readily engage in fisticuffs, immediately blame your neighbour. But not Mr Pavell, oh no. He did the honourabre thing, he decided that there is no percentage in addressing the monkey when the organ grinder is available. No sirree, Mr Pavell is an hounorable kind of guy, and he went about his business in an honourable kind of way: he decided to follow the great American tradition, and sue!

Who then did he sue, why exactly did he sue, and whatever resulted from it all? My dear fellow members, there-in lies the crux: the accused was none other than Jesus H Christ! Mr Pavell has decided that enough is enough, and he sued the Accused for, listen to this: fraud, breach of confidence, corruption, and exerting undue influence! Ouch!

Pavell did his homework, and thoroughly too! He argued that with his long ago baptism it must rightly be assumed that by implication he has entered into an agreement of some sort with the Accused, said agreement implying, amongst others that the Accused undertook to protect then little Pavell against any and all earthly harm. The honourable court should now, with all due respect take note that up to now this undertaking was decidedly not adhered to! Ouch! Furthermore, fair is fair, especially since the litigant most certainly kept his side of the bargain by, over the past 40 years, liberally praying, like epected to, and liberally contributing to the financial coffers of His church.

But the court in Timisora dismissed the case, declaring that God is not subjected to worldly laws, and besides, He has no fixed address. And that is and was that, or was it?

For still I wonder, and I can not help but to contemplate this whole issue without feeling that somehow justice was not quite done. I mean: There was an offer, and an acceptance, implying that a contract was entered into? And Mr Pavel, I am sure could, and did prove that he has mostly adhered to his side of the contract? Surely it is the Accused who is in breach? Can He now, willy-nilly enter into agreements, and willy-nilly show you the middle finger? Mmm, something is rotten in the state of Denmark, and the reason for that stink is not Mr Pavel’s at all. Which make me think: If he can do it to Pavel, what prevents Him from doing it to everybody else, and specifically you?

There also is the small matter of the address. Since when is the lack of a fixed abode a hindrance to justice being carried out? Post an APB, Arrest the Accused on sight! Condemn Him in his absence! Sigh, always an excuse.

Indeed this whole business appears to be a disgusting miscarriage of justice, and has left me with more questions than answers.
