Jesus Christ.....

[boognish]

there is a man whos name is legitamitly Jesus Christ. now this man wants to get his licence i think...but the state wont let him. they say he has to change his name....is that really fair?

[nwshc]

Simply put:

No

[Anonymous]

htose bastards need to go fuck themselves, its not the guys fault hes named that

[AC.wAkeBoArDin.06]

yeah, its not his fault... he shouldnt have to change his name

[Φρανκομβριτ]

Exactly. Why should someone have to change their name because they want a licence. I think I would take the bus if I had to!

[Dante]

he shouldnt have to change his name...and if i was him, I wouldnt.

[<-Dying_to_Live->]

maybe its because there's a lot of people who have that name

[Anonymous]

^^That don't matter cosmos. A lot of people have the last name Smith, should they all have to find another one?

This is pretty fun from my point of view, but sucks for the guy. It is wrong.

[boognish]

maybe its because there's a lot of people who have that nameno, we use id numbers, name or no name they can put and id on him. its that his name is JESUS CHRIST

[<-Dying_to_Live->]

i honestly dont care. if he has to change his name, big fucking deal. it shouldnt have even made the news, i dont know how you all even heard of it

[TheWizard]

Strange, what state was it?

[boognish]

virginia i think

[kevin]

So much for government not have religous ties :roll:

[DouggyO.o]

no its not fair at all just cuz his name is jesus christ dosent mean he cant get one....those bstards

[gctwinslover]

I think he should have but thats just cuz um christian

[boognish]

thats the point, religion and government are supposed to be seperate. religion completely takes away freedoms. i mean if the prezident was to say in one of his speechs religion is terrible and christianity is the worst, therefore i am making laws futher preventing our government and schools from being overtaken by radical religious beliefs. what would happen? well some psychotic christians would go crazy and go on a bush family killing crusade in the name of god. politics and religion should never be mixed, but its already to late to fix

[Jordan-Civ3 Master1991]

thats silly that he has to change his name to drive mabe he should move

[Kiros]

that's odd... I havent heard of this. Who is this "Jesus Christ" ??? Who would name their son after the greatest man to ever walk earth, only as if it was an everyday thing?!

[boognish]

probly some one that immigrated here, and had never heard of christianity

[kolte]

I think its unjust. If sombody was named moses would you reject them a licence, probebly not. I hope he gets it.

[TheWizard]

I hope the guy doesn't believe in god. That would be cool. :)

[nwshc]

The thing is was the guys last name acctually Christ, or did he change it to that?

[<-Dying_to_Live->]

who cares this is such a pointles situation

[kolte]

I agree, the state is breaking the 1st amendment, freedom of speach. I think your name should fall into that catagory

[Millermagic]

The guy's real name is not Jesus Christ. He either added in the Jesus, the Christ or both.

[*-tick tock-*]

thats weird they should let him get the license.

[kolte]

still first amendment

[<-Dying_to_Live->]

your name isnt a freedom of speech. theres no "freedom of title"

[kolte]

Tinker vs. the board of education

Words and symbols fall under the 1st amendment

[<-Dying_to_Live->]

you do realize that in certain cases laws can be redefined and circumvented

[kolte]

yes.

[<-Dying_to_Live->]

god i just looked at the forum main page and your the last one to post in every single forum down the whole page. stop spamming

[kolte]

its not spamming

[sybar777]

your name isnt a freedom of speech. theres no "freedom of title"


-----------------------------------------------------------------------
freedom of title is freedom of speech... it falls under the same catagory.

but then again they can tell you that you cant change you name to the specific one you want if it is offensive.. and "jesus christ" may be offensive to some ppl...

[RunAwayMolly]

thats the most retarded thing ever

[Anonymous]

off subject:
Im not really sure what i am anymore! One side really wants to believe in something, just to have a common ground with all my emotions. i think if i could believe in something and just have faith in it, it would make me feel so much better. but on the other hand god has made me miserable and he hasnt given me jack! but im leaning towards the other way...
anyways, back to the topic.

[redcar]

well i am a roman catholic and do believe in jesus christ, god and the holy spirit, i knw that there are terrible things happening in the world and terrible things happening to people, and people blame god for it but i think its too easy for people to blame god

[<-Dying_to_Live->]

thats because if god created everyone like the bible says, then god forced people to have impurities and forces people to "sin" and thats why everyone points fingers at Him

[Anonymous]

he didnt force us, he gave us free will.

[Kiros]

exactly. god gave us choice. whether we want to follow him and worship him and do good, or if we want to believe something else.

[Anonymous]

^true, very good kiros! :D

[Elokyn]

wow I think this got a tad off topic :? well that's stupid for the guy to have to change his name......I mean..it's his f*!?^%g name! Whether he changed it or not is irrelivant ..they're limiting what our names can and can't be now? >.<

[<-Dying_to_Live->]

when did this even happen

[DracoMalfoysLilGrl15]

there is a man whos name is legitamitly Jesus Christ. now this man wants to get his licence i think...but the state wont let him. they say he has to change his name....is that really fair?

That iz sooo stupid!! Like a few otherz said...it'z not hiz fault!!

[<-Dying_to_Live->]

this story sounds so fake. i want details

[Rowan1011]

Here's what I think.. Fact is, not everybody in America is Christian.. And if it is a non-comunist country, you should be able to follow whatever faith you please.. So you should be able to name yourself whatever you want, even if the majority believes in Jesus Christ as the messiah. If I were called Budha, Shiva or even Quezecoltl I'm sure as hell they wouldn't care.

That's what I think.
