An atheist grew increasingly upset during the Christmas season and decided to take legal action. He filed a lawsuit arguing that Christians and Jews enjoyed numerous religious holidays, while atheists had none to celebrate.
The case was brought before a judge.
After hearing a lengthy and impassioned argument from the atheist’s attorney, the judge struck his gavel and announced, “Case dismissed.”
The lawyer immediately objected.
“Your Honour, how can you dismiss this case? Christians have Christmas, Easter, and many other observances. Jews celebrate Passover, Yom Kippur, and Hanukkah. Yet my client, and all atheists, have no holiday at all.”
The judge leaned forward and calmly replied, “It seems your client is simply unaware of his own holiday.”
The lawyer scoffed. “Your Honour, we know of no such holiday for atheists. When exactly would that be?”
The judge answered, “It occurs every year on the same date. Psalm 14:1 says, ‘The fool says in his heart, there is no God.’
So if your client claims there is no God, the Bible defines him as a fool.
That makes April Fool’s Day his holiday. Court is adjourned.”
