FLORIDA COURT SETS ATHEIST HOLY DAY


By lala - Posted on 25 February 2010

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 and 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.

Psalm14:1 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!
