Parents can't name baby 'Messiah,' judge rules
Your baby's no Messiah.
That was the message from a Tennessee judge to the parents of a 7-month-old boy who actually named their son Messiah.
The parents were actually in court because they couldn't agree on a last name. But when Judge Lu Ann Ballew ruled - she ordered the parents to change the child's first name to Martin.
"The word Messiah is a title, and it's a title that has only been earned by one person, and that one person is Jesus Christ," Ballew said.
The judge went on to say her decision is best for the child.But does her argument add up?
