Thread: Atheist Holiday....?

Okay before you EVER read this! If your a atheist im sorry if this offends you..if your a christian and this upsets you (i doubt it does!) i am sorry! If your a Jew im sorry! I found this VERY funny and thought alot of you guys would too!!!

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 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 Fools 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"

Ya, I understand. I dunno I guess I feel as though everyone on here is "mature" enough but if ya think it will cause problems how do I take it down? I have nooo clues

I agree about the "Acura guy".... he was just out looking for trouble. I do find it amusing being a Christian myself. Most members are opinionated (myself being one), but aren't going to start a "im right, your wrong" argument. It takes one bad apple to spoil the whole bushel.

well I thought it was funny, curious though why an agnostic would take offense too it but think it would not offend an athiest? (In all seriousness)

i thought it was funny

Well I really don't wanna start anything or offend people. So I believe they are going to "lock" this thread. sorrryyyyy

if you want to erase it i think you have to delete ur first post jess

well, I would like to hear a reply from 1998xGTP before its locked as I am genuinly curious, but other than that, I don't care either way....and I guess he could PM me vs posting here if someone wants it locked/hidden

sorry, I guess I miss interpreted the beginning of your post:

Well I don't think it's funny because I am agnostic

Disreguard my last question then.

I found it funny myself. If someone wants to take offense to it, Heck, just fire back with another joke. That way everyone gets their laugh and like all threads, it will eventually fade out.

That's true. Well put.
