The 23 yr old inmate in Lincoln, Nebraska didn't impress the judge. Born Jonathan L Thomas, he wants to change his full name to Sinner Lawrence Bilskirnir. Sinner, I call him that for short.. said that his Norse religion is the reason for his name change, as he is a Heathen and Thor is his "High God,"
I know this is one religious sect the Republicans haven't tried to connect with - yet. Perhaps he is a Berserker trying this out in Lincoln, Nebraska, of all places! Judge Steve Burns listed reasons why the court needed to keep track of - Jonathan? Obviously unimpressed with his reasons for a change of name, the judge then said that "simply because a person is a Christian, a Jew or a Muslim, they do not change their name to Moses."
Nice try "Sinner" maybe if and when you're on the outside you and Thor can try again.
