Who Is Nuttier?

A judge in New York allowed a man to change his name to Jesus Christ. The judge said name changes are not usually denied on the grounds that they might cause problems (like with ID cards, licenses, etc.) and she cited several cases where people changed their names to Jesus Christ and to Santa Claus.

The only problem I see is that the man stated the reason he wanted to change his name to Jesus Christ is because he is Jesus Christ.

I would think that this person is not capable of making decisions on his own. It would be very likely that he should be in a place where they can keep an eye on him around the clock. The real question is, shouldn't the judge be locked up with him?
