Dear Goannetters,
While I was reading Goanet postings on God's existence or non-existence, I
received this write-up which goes here in a lighter vein, amidst the heat
generated by 'atheistic postings' for us who do accept God as real, as source
of being, as heavenly Father, in spite of all our vicissitudes and
sufferings!...
Regards.

FLORIDA COURT SETS ATHEIST HOLY DAY...
In Florida, an atheist created a case against the Easter and
Passover holy
days.
He hired an attorney to bring a discrimination case against
Christians,
Jews and observances of their holy days.
The argument was that it was unfair that atheists had no such
recognized day(s).
The case was brought before a judge.
After listening to the passionate presentation by the lawyer,
the judge
banged his gavel declaring, 'Case dismissed.'
The lawyer immediately stood objecting to the ruling saying,
'Your
honor, how can you possibly dismiss this case?
The Christians have Christmas, Easter, etc. The Jews have
Passover, Yom
Kippur, Rosh Hashanah, 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 shows 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.
'AMEN'
