As an atheist, I ask you, should we begin to fight for our rights and atheist understanding?
What color should our ribbon be?
What should our chant be?
What should we print on our t-shirts?

Well Let's see they think we are spiritless, godless, horned creatures so how about:
Chant-
We have spirit yes we do, we have spirit now go to h3ll.
T-shirt-
I shaved off my horns for this?
My friends tried to save me from h3ll but all I got was this stupid t-shirt.
All my friends are free too!
I am on my knees now what?
Okay I digress..

Ribbons? We don't need no stinkin ribbons.
-- corrupted from Blazing Saddles of course.
If they think they can take the atheists out, I'd like to see them try... we got God on our side.... wait..... errrr.... maybe if they all got together and prayed as one for all the atheists in the world to disappear God would finally answer a prayer and we would?
But in the spirit of amusement the chant could be "Hell? No! We won't go!"

I don't feel any sort of action needs to be taken just yet. The chanting and ribbons seem a bit too much.
but if anyone tries some stuff like Old President Bush, about us not being citizens well then that's when I'll get into action.

Ugh, Ribbons. I hate those things! As far as those stories are concerned though, they are getting their info from people who are mainly in the mainstream religions. Their distrust is really silly, IMLO. Put a black man in a room full of neo-nazi's and then ask the neo-nazi's who is the least trusted in the room. Basically the same thing. (Sorry for the shitt.y analogy).

Of course Athiests should be a protected class, everyone else gets to be! The ribbon should be black, on the shirts should be a picture of an evolving man...as for the chant, you're on your own...:)

THE DARWIN FISH should be on our shirts and our color should be all the colors transforming into one another - red>red orange>orange>yellow orange> yellow etc - That shows a gradual change of colors = evolution
Chant - sorry Hun I have no idea

I do not care what others think of me. We need no fight for rights. Understanding is tough. Media exposure and discussion groups would be helpful, but who would do it?

I don't want to be a charity case, as an atheist. I want separation of church and state, and I want it through the court system and school systems.
