Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether federal employees can be held liable under the Federal Tort Claims Act for alleged Establishment Clause violations related to religious promotion and negligent acts

Question Presented (OCR Extract)

Questions Presented : 1. Where federal employees acting in their official capacity violate 76 OK Stat § 1 and the First Amendment’s Establishment Clause by harming Mr. Hepburn and by promoting, propagating, and establishing the religion of heliocentrism (sun worship) nationwide via wrongful and negligent acts and omissions, is it not the right of Mr. Hepburn to seek damages and relief under the Federal Tort Claims Act? 2. Should the dismissal of Mr. Hepburn’s case (5:2024cv00026, Hepburn v. United States of America The) be overturned? 3. Is Lucifer not the “god” of this world? This cannot be if he and his are running from me, for without question, one cannot be a god and a coward. Revelation 12:17 of the King James Bible reads: “17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.” Mr. Hepburn has the testimony of Jesus Christ, yet instead of accepting Mr. Hepburn’s challenge and engaging him in a legal battle (warfare), the dragon has fled because he knows that in a court of law the testimony of the One True God Jesus Christ would utterly destroy him and his dying kingdom. If the so-called god of this world runs from this fight, then this will stand as more proof that the fallen one will never be like the Most High, and he will never live this down. So, the question is, is Lucifer a god, or isn’t he?! i
