Occasionally the courts can demonstrate great wisdom.
Keep smiling :-)
In Florida, an atheist became incensed over the preparation for Easter
and Passover holidays and decided to contact the local ACLU about the
discrimination inflicted on atheists by the constant celebrations
afforded to Christians and Jews with all their holidays while the
atheists had no holiday to celebrate.
The ACLU jumped on the opportunity to once again pick up the cause of
the godless and assigned their sharpest attorneys to the case.
The case was brought before a wise judge who after listening to the
long, passionate presentation of the ACLU lawyers, promptly banged his
gavel and declared, "Case dismissed!"
The lead ACLU lawyer immediately stood and objected to the ruling and
said, "Your honor, how can you possibly dismiss this case? Surely the
Christians have Christmas, Easter and many other observances.
And the Jews--why in addition to Passover they have Yom Kippur and
Hanukkah, and 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 know about, or for that
matter, even celebrate the atheists' holiday!"
The ACLU lawyer pompously said "We are aware of no such holiday for
atheists, just when might that be, your honor?"
The judge said "Well it comes every year on exactly the same date---
April 1st!"
The fool says in his heart, "There is no God."
- Psalm 14:1, Psalm 53:1
Way to go, Judge!
