Default Atheist Day Observance

I am unable to verify this account as true, so lets call this a little story a display of practical Biblical wisdom:

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, 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."

The hard part truly is when you believe a little bit of all of those religions...do you get to celebrate all of the holidays??
