from CNN.com - Jesus Christ in legal battle to get license

Yes, that's right. According to this CNN.com article, a West Virginian man, who legally changed his name to Jesus Christ, is having a hard time getting his driver's license. He already has other ID that proves he's now named JC. According to his attorney, his name change was a move for "expressing his faith and his respect and love for Jesus Christ." An interesting way of showing it! I guess we are called to imitate Christ, but I try to go about it in a different way... :)

I can't think of any legitimate reason why he can't change his to anything that he wants without the interference of the state. Yeah, he's a nut, but even nuts have a right to live their own lives -- a fact that makes me sigh with relief every day.
