The Holiday
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 not aware of any 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."
