COURT SETS ATHEISTS HOLIDAY
Have you heard about this case? Great answer from the judge!
In Florida, an atheist became incensed over the preparation of Easter
and Passover holidays.
He decided to contact his lawyer about the discrimination inflicted on
atheists by the constant celebrations afforded to Christians and Jews
with all their holidays while atheists had no holiday to celebrate.
The case was brought before a judge. After listening to the long
passionate presentation by the lawyer, the Judge banged his gavel and
declared, 'Case dismissed!'
The lawyer immediately stood and objected to the ruling and said, 'Your
honor, how can you possibly dismiss this case? The Christians have
Christmas, Easter and many other observances. Jews have Passover, Yom
Kippur and Hanukkah...yet my client and all other atheists have no such
holiday!'
The judge leaned forward in his chair and simply said,
'Obviously your client is too confused to even know about, much less celebrate
his own
atheists' holiday!'
The lawyer pompously said, 'Your Honor, we are unaware of any such
holiday for atheists. Just when might that holiday be, your Honor?'
The judge said, 'Well, it comes every year on exactly the same
date---April 1st! Since our calendar sets April 1st as 'April Fools
Day,' consider that Psalm 14:1 states, 'The fool says in his heart,
there is no God.'
Thus, in my opinion, if your client says there is no God, then by
scripture, he is a fool, and April 1st is his holiday! Now, have a good
day and get out of my courtroom!!
Way to go ,
Judge!
AMEN!!!
