In Florida, an atheist became incensed over the preparation for Easter and
Passover holidays and decided to contact the local ACLU about the
discrimination inflicted on atheists by the constant celebrations afforded
to Christians and Jews with all their holidays while the atheists had no
holiday to celebrate.

The ACLU jumped on the opportunity to once again pick up the cause of the
godless and assigned their sharpest attorneys to the case. The case was
brought before a wise judge who after listening to the long, passionate
presentation of the ACLU lawyers, promptly banged his gavel and declared,
"Case dismissed!"

The lead ACLU lawyer immediately stood and objected to the ruling and said,
"Your honor, how can you possibly dismiss this case? Surely the Christians
have Christmas, Easter and many other observances And the Jews--why in
addition to Passover they have Yom Kippur and Hanukkah...and 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 know
about or for that matter even celebrate the atheists' holiday!"

The ACLU lawyer pompously said "We are aware of no such holiday for
atheists, just when might that be, your honor?" The judge said "Well it
comes every year on exactly the same date - - -April 1st!" "The fool says
in his heart, 'There is no God.'" - Psalm 14:1, Psalm 53:1
