My opinion, there is no best. Each brings something different to the table.

following
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Pat Robertson.

Open it up to the deceased and Joe Smith and Fred Phelps.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Atheism doesn't have a spokesman, Its just not believing in the god claim, nothing else.

Unfortunate to see no women whatsoever on this list. Or do you mean spokesman literally?
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

That's all it is supposed to be, but I have noticed it becomes more than that to some people sometimes. Though not so much in this forum.  

Wasn't it Richard Dawkins who said atheists should have a name and call themselves "Brights?" If atheism just means not believing in God, then how does this automatically make someone "bright" unless there's more to it than that? But then again, not very many people here like him so perhaps he's not all too popular among long time atheists.
