The Atheism Symbol

I'm ambivalent about it, myself. The nice thing about being an atheist is that I don't have to have a symbol or icon or motto or anything like that. It's like belonging to a group that prides itself on not belonging to a group. Which fulfills my quota of cognitive dissonance for the day.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
