Florida Court sets Atheist's Holiday and the value of time

To realize the value of ONE YEAR,
ask a student who failed a grade.
To realize the value of ONE MONTH,
ask a mother who gave birth to a pre-mature baby.
To realize the value of ONE WEEK,
ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.
To realize the value of ONE DAY,
ask a daily wage laborer with kids to feed.
To realize the value of ONE HOUR,
ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.
To realize the value of ONE MINUTE,
ask a person who missed the train.
To realize the value of ONE SECOND,
ask a person who just avoided an accident.

Treasure every moment that you have!
And remember that time waits for no one.

Yesterday is history. Tomorrow a mystery.
Today is a gift. That's why it's called the present!

Love Yehuda




FLORIDA COURT  SETS ATHEIST HOLY 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 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  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."  You gotta
love a Judge that knows his scripture!
