FLORIDA COURT SETS ATHEIST HOLY DAY

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 declaring, "Case dismissed!"

The lawyer immediately stood 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 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."

This is too good not to forward.
"I can do all thing through Christ which strengtheneth me."
