Oh dear..
I can't but be a little bit amused by the fact that atheists are compared to child molesters etc. It just shows how ignorant these morons can be. I myself have been called on several occations (by religious people, I might add) a saint, angel, good and kind.. Well, I think you get the gist of it. Now, if I said to those people that I am an atheist, I wonder if they'd take it back and start calling me a rapist instead, no matter how "good" I was seconds before.
As for the branding, I think it's a horrible idea. On the other hand, my next tattoo will be the Darwin-fish, so I guess I don't actually have a say in this matter. Though, I want it because of my love for biology, not (only) because I'm an atheist

When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
