In Florida , an atheist became incensed 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!!"

LOVE THIS! I wish there were more judges out there like this one!

What do you think about the teacher who isn't allowed to have his Bible on his desk?

Personally, I think that it's wrong. They're not preaching the Bible, so what harm does it do, especially if they want to read it between classes.

The incident described in the post is a joke that has been accepted as an actual occurrence. Go to Snopes.com and type in Judges 5:31.

Female. And, since I've never written a BLOG before, not really sure what should go in here, so I'm using my gender to change my mind...again. I have found that I have a pet peeve, on here. I love to read the blogs that are written, but find that I have no patience with people who run things together, and don't know the proper punctuation of a sentence. Paragraphs are a million miles long, and everything is written in small letters only. When they do this, with no paragraph break, it make the blogs difficult to read, so I don't. May you all have a nice day.:o)
