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!! Author Unknown.
