    HOLY DAY SET BY FLORIDA COURT


    I know God is giggling!




    A Florida Court Sets Atheist Holy Day!
    Gotta love this Judge!

    A FLORIDA COURT SETS
    ATHEIST HOLY DAY
    In Florida , an atheist created a case against Easter and Passover Holy days. He hired an attorney to bring a discrimination case against Christians and 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 and objecting to the ruling 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, counselor, 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..."

    You gotta love a Judge that knows his scripture!

    Re: Without advice ... to go alone .. To gamble all

    I am a child of the Dreamtime People

    Part of this Land, like the gnarled gum tree

    I am the river, softly singing

    Chanting our songs on my way to the sea

    My spirit is the dust-devils

    Mirages, that dance on the plain

    I'm the snow, the wind and the falling rain

    I'm part of the rocks and the red desert earth

    Red as the blood that flows in my veins

    I am eagle, crow and snake that glides

    Thorough the rain-forest that clings to the mountainside

    I awakened here when the earth was new

    There was emu, wombat, kangaroo

    No other man of a different hue

    I am this land

    And this land is me

    I am Australia.—Hyllus Maris
