Holy

> observances of their holy days. The argument was
> that it was unfair that atheists had no such

> Easter and others. The Jews have

Passover, Yom
> Kippur and Hanukkah, yet my client and all other
> atheists have no such holidays.."
> > The judge leaned forward in his chair
> saying, "But you do. Your client, counsel, is
> woefully ignorant."
> > The lawyer said, "Your Honor, we are unaware
> of any special observance or holiday for atheists."
> > The judge said, "The calendar says April 1st
> is April Fools Day. Psalm 14:1 states, 'The fool
> says in his heart, there is no God.' Thus, it is
> the opinion of this court, that, if your client says
> there is no God, then he is a fool. Therefore,

April
> 1st is his day. Court is adjourned."
