In Florida, an atheist created a case against the upcoming Easter and
Passover holy days. He hired an attorney to bring a discrimination case
against Christians, Jews and observances of their holy days.
The argument was that it was unfair that atheists had no such recognized
days. The case was brought before a judge. After listening to the
passionate presentation by the lawyer, the judge banged his gavel, "Case
dismissed!"
The lawyer immediately stood up objecting to the ruling saying, "Your
honor, how can you possibly dismiss this case? The Christians have
Christmas, Easter and others. The Jews have Passover, Yom Kipp and
Hanukkah, yet my client and all other atheists have no such holidays."
The judge leaned forward in his chair saying, "But you do. Your client,
counsel, is woefully ignorant."
The lawyer said, "Your Honor, we are unaware of any special observance or
holiday for atheists." The judge said, "The calendar says April 1st is
April Fools Day. Psalm 14:1 states, 'The fool says in his heart, there is
no God.' Thus, it is the opinion of this court, if your client says there
is no God,then he is a fool. Therefore, April 1st is his day.
Court is adjourned!
