Mt. Reagan?

Arthur Mijares of Oakley, Calif., recently heard God telling him to do something:  lead a campaign to get a local mountain name changed from Mt. Diablo to Mt. Reagan.

Rich Mayfield wrote about Mijares' campaign in the Summit Daily News:

Mr. Mijares describes himself as 'an ordinary man that worships God,' who received his instructions from the aforementioned divinity during his prayer time. Much like Moses, Mijares was initially reluctant — 'Lord they're going to think I'm a loon.' But religious man that he is, Mijares moved forward, filing the proper papers with the proper authorities. And that's when all hell broke loose.

It caused controversy among his neighbors in Oakley. More than 80,000 people registered their opposition to renaming the mountain. In the end, the Contra Costa Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to oppose the renaming. But at least Mijares followed God.
