The "What is God" contest is open to everyone. The "What Is God?" contest was inspired by a civil action claim in which the question "What is God?," was asked with respect to interrogatives demanded of the Plaintiff. The Plaintiff gave his answers in an encrypted file asking the question "What Is God?" to reveal the encryption key only to those people who could give the correct answer. Therefore the plaintiff seeks God's protection under God's Laws, the Ten Commandments. The Plaintiff regards this as a precedent setting case in Alabama because Chief Justice Roy Moore placed a memorial to the Ten Commandments in the State of Alabama Supreme Court Judicial Building. Certainly the display of the Ten Commandments memorial recognizes that man's law is founded upon God's Law. Therefore it is legal and reasonable to evoke the question "What is God?" with respect to interrogatives, to protect one's self from others who may not know, respect or obey God's law when they ask questions of a victim in court.
