Suing the Devil Page #8
of laughs, huh?
You couldn't really be Satan,
after all, the Bible clearly states that,
if you resist the devil,
he will flee from you.
- But that doesn't apply to you, does it?
- No.
I... I'm used...
Get thee behind me Satan!!!
Hey, I've got a proposition
for you, buddy.
Come on, Lukey Dukey.
How about it?
I give you everything in this life
Riches, a beautiful estate,
horses, huh?
What will it cost me?
My soul?
Oh yes, just your soul,
it's nothing. Your soul...
Oh, you can take that offer
and shove it up your...
Order!
Get back into the
witness stand, sir!
Well, that was very irrational.
In fact, you look pretty
stupid to me now.
What do you think
about that?
Can you please get back
into the witness stand?
Will you shut up?
I haven't finished yet, shut up!
Shut your mouth!
And you, what are you
looking at, huh?
Something funny?
I know all about you.
I know all your secrets, yeah.
- You're gamblers, you're sex addicts...
- Will the witness...
- Shut up!
- Mr. defendant...
- Shut up!
- Will you take the witness stand...
- Sit down!
- Take your...
- SHUT UP!
I know all about you,
all of you.
I'm watching you.
You want to know the truth?
The real, honest,
gut level truth?
I take sheer delight...
in creating havoc
in the world.
Pitting rich against the poor,
race against race,
country against country,
man against man,
but, most especially,
man against God.
God, oh yeah.
God, God. Yeah, God.
Do you know
what God invented?
I mean, come on, most of you
are too stupid to figure it out.
God created the oceans
and the stars,
he created compassion,
mercy and...
stupid things like love.
He created good health,
raindrops,
and the scent of jasmine.
Do you know what I created, huh?
Do you?
I created noise,
and like the dumb idiots you are,
you worshipped it!
Humans loved the noise
I created!
Car alarms, motorcycles,
leaf blowers,
night clubs, gangster rap,
techno music,
everything that creates noise
I invented.
And you know what?
Noise drowns out
any thoughts of God.
What's the matter?
Don't you love the music of hell?
Let me let you in
on a little secret.
Automated answering,
you're looking at it.
Unjust notice?
It's from me.
A huge unjust bill,
that's from me.
A parking ticket?
I own all the utility companies, all the
gas companies and all the parking meters.
Who do you think gives you the parking
tickets, anyway? I do it to rile you,
because I hate
your stinking guts!
You humans, you're pathetic.
You know, I can tempt you
with a candy bar
and you'll sell out Jesus Christ
in a millisecond.
I mean...
people are being massacred in Rwanda,
and you yawn.
People starving in Haiti,
and you put a buck
into the collection plate.
Losers!
What a bunch of losers!
War!
Do you know most wars
Can you believe that?
Land issues, yeah!
And yet, 75% of all land
isn't occupied,
even in the United States!
Oh yeah, I know,
I started wars,
to finish what I started!
I need people who care about
really dumb political issues.
Left wing vs. Right wing,
it's all a distraction,
don't you get it?
You know, you people,
you believe in God like
Oh, by the way,
I love how I'm portrayed
in the media.
with the pitchfork
and the horns
and the tail.
You humans, you're so stupid.
You're like a bunch of little
hamsters running on a wheel.
You know, everyday
there's people that die,
and guess what?
They're in just two places,
and they're not really dead.
They're either alive in heaven
or alive in hell.
You pick.
Do you know what
my ultimate goal is?
It's to take all you nitwits
to hell with me!
Yeah, well, as the world's coming
to an end, huh? Better be quick!
I suppose you're wondering
why I do what I do.
It's very easy, really.
It's because I hate
your stinking guts!
I hate every single
one of you!
Have a nice day.
Your honor,
we ask the court to please disregard
the complete statement of our client.
He made it under complete
duress from opposing counsel
and under civil
procedure code 598.91,
he cannot be tried
in this court.
The state of our client's
mental health, he's crazy.
Because I do not want
this case appealed,
the testimony will be stricken
from the record.
Oh, your honor, I...
And I am to instruct all of you
in the following.
You will not take
into consideration
any of what the defendant
blurted out.
Only what you have
heard and seen
and witnessed from the facts
and testimonies of the witnesses.
Am I clear?
Counsel for the defense, closing?
Distinguished members
of the jury,
let's take a moment
and think about...
what type of man it would take
to sue someone for 8 trillion dollars.
Self centered,
and egotistical,
an attention seeking man who simply
cannot move on from his own past.
Now as charismatic
as my client can seem,
as much as he wants to play this up
in the courtroom, he is mentally ill.
He is demented,
he needs help,
he needs pity,
not a lawsuit.
And he is no where closer
to being connected to all the evil,
very one that Eve took a bite from
in the Garden of Eden.
So I'm asking you
to make an opinion today,
and just as any sane,
logical individual would do,
they'll find my client...
not guilty.
And now Mr. O'Brien, closing?
Mr. O'Brien?
Satan has brought up
my past.
And he's right.
I've done some
horrendous things.
I've said some
horrible cruel things.
And I ask the forgiveness
of those I have hurt.
Everyday...
there is a war within me.
I know what I should do.
Sometimes I don't do that.
I know what I shouldn't do.
Sometimes I do that instead.
But that's the battle of choosing
between good and evil.
Between God and Satan.
Everyday it's a struggle
to live a life that
honors Jesus Christ.
But when you give your life
over to Jesus,
well, you're a new person.
Satan's mission is to destroy
the work of God.
We, humans,
are the work of God.
We make mistakes,
and He forgives us.
Let's not allow Satan
to take that away from us.
Make him pay...
for his attempts at
destroying our lives.
Punish him for his hate.
And cherish God
for his love
and his forgiveness.
See, the greatest trick
the Devil ever pulled
was convincing the world
he didn't exist.
But that illusion
is no more.
Thank you.
All rise!
Do you have a verdict?
Yes, your honor.
The jury finds in favor
of the plaintiff
for 8 trillion dollars.
Order!
Order!
And Satan, you can go
straight to hell!
Tasheila Jones,
Channel 2 News,
and we're outside here,
the verdict's just been announced!
How do you feel
about the verdict?
It's a fantastic result!
Luke fought for what he wanted
and he won, he got it!
What do you want,
