This is a joke and do not believe to be true, enjoy!

In Florida, an atheist became obsessed 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!!

LMFAO i like that

No appeal pending... case closed for summer!

You know if you made a joke like that about Jews, Catholics or any other major religion you'd catch hell from people and probably have it removed from the chat. I know you'll say it's only a joke but try and show a little respect for someone elses beliefs.

So jds...you are atheist?

Agree im Christian and i think its funny.... Only a joke man..

What a coincidence-- April 1st is also World Religious Harmony Day.

I didn’t get it.

I'm not sure whether the joke was supposed to be about the idea that atheists are fools, or whether it was making fun of the ignorant arrogance of bigoted Christian judges, or maybe both?

In truth, neither scenario struck me as being funny.

Maybe it was a joke about lawyers and I just didn’t get it????

I'm an Atheist, it didn't offend me. I didn't really think it was that funny, but humor is a subjective thing
