I think Atheist should have a shirt printed that says "Jesus died for me too" and on the back we could put AtheistForums.org That might work in the deep south, although it would probably cause more confrontation immediately.

"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
