The difference is that atheists in that scenario would be identifiable as "a-holes" only by their chosen symbology. Theist a-holes, on the other hand, would be recognisable regardless.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
