upcoming Easter and Passover 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 declaring, "Case dismissed!"
The lawyer immediately stood objecting to the ruling,
"Your honor, how can you possibly dismiss this
case? The Christians have Christmas, Easter and
others. The Jews have Passover, Yom
Kippur 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, that if your client says there is no God, then he is
a fool. Therefore, April 1st is his day. Court is
adjourned.
You gotta love a Judge that knows his scripture!
