I'm pretty pumped when I see people responding to religious violence with images of Muhammad or with fists holding pens. I normally find the French annoying and pretentious (indeed, they pride themselves on it) but today, I find them poignant and veracious. MM Sorry p_s, I'll stop derailing the thread now.
"The greatest deception men suffer is from their own opinions" - Leonardo da Vinci
"I think I use the term “radical” rather loosely, just for emphasis. If you describe yourself as “atheist,” some people will say, “Don’t you mean ‘agnostic’?” I have to reply that I really do mean atheist, I really do not believe that there is a god; in fact, I am convinced that there is not a god (a subtle difference). I see not a shred of evidence to suggest that there is one ... etc., etc. It’s easier to say that I am a radical atheist, just to signal that I really mean it, have thought about it a great deal, and that it’s an opinion I hold seriously." - Douglas Adams (and I echo the sentiment) 
As Mohammad says on the cover of Charlie Hebdo's latest issue, "All is forgiven," MM.
He who loves God cannot endeavour that God should love him in return - Baruch Spinoza
