Normally my posts are put up on Wednesdays and yes, I know this is Thursday, but, in honour of April 1st I received an email today that I just had to share with you. It is a terrific reminder that the Word of God is just as relevant and timely today as it has always been. Enjoy!

Florida Court Sets Atheist Holy Day
/* Snopes says this is not a true story… but it’s still
funny! Have a great day! */
In Florida, an atheist created a case against the upcoming
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 days.
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 and
saying, "Your honor, how can you possibly dismiss this case?
The Christians have Christmas, 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 Fool’s
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."
