~Way to go Judge~
(Plus: Today in History and Word for the Day.)

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!!
