This is living proof that every moron in the world has a right to
petition the court - and tie it up with foolishness. 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,
that 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!
