News: Kentucky man's 'I'M GOD' license plate lawsuit
- Should my dating daughter choose the nearby college and move in with her boyfriend, or take the scholarship school three hours away?
A Frankfort, Kentucky man — atheist Ben Benny Hart, who had the plate in Ohio for over a decade — is suing Kentucky (backed by the ACLU and the Freedom From Religious Foundation) after being told the 'I'M GOD' plate is inappropriate; a judge let the case proceed. The hosts argue he should be allowed it on free-speech grounds, laugh at his weak case for divinity (his wife says he's a very handsome man), and land a joke: if he were God he could get an apostrophe on the plate. They tie it back to Egypt's interview — no Christian should be angry about it — and note past street confrontations at an atheist convention as the real witness problem.

Proof 50 from godisimaginary.com: 'Ask Jesus to appear'
- Why doesn't Jesus appear to everyone today like he appeared to Paul and the 500?
- Is 'blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe' just a cover for a long con?
A host reads aloud proof number 50 from godisimaginary.com at length: Jesus would appear to everyone today if he had truly risen, since he appeared to hundreds after the resurrection (Matthew 28, Mark 16, Luke 24, John 20-21, 1 Corinthians 15:3-6).
