A man arrested at a Lexington car dealership early Wednesday after he told police that he was on a "mission from God" to steal a car pleaded not guilty in the case Wednesday afternoon.
Police said David A. Silva, 36, smashed a window at Freedom Dodge, but before he could get inside, a security guard stopped him. Police say Silva told the guard that he wanted him to steal a Dodge Charger for God.

Silva faces several charges, including criminal mischief.

Well apparently God has great taste in cars! With the 5.7l V-8 Hemi with Multi-Displacement System technology, the Dodge Charger is the perfect vehicle for any would be messiah! Luckily I don't have imaginary friends telling me to do things, so I was able to go out and buy one without having to wait! Ain't religion great!?! Use it as an excuse for almost anything!
