Proposal: Start Something April 2, 2008
Posted by Martin in : Relevant Reading, Religion/Atheism , trackbackComrade Gab Madrid and I have a proposal. We ought to start something.
This is an Imperial Repost from the Empire-operated Spoliarium.
I’ve recently found out that they have come up with an official symbol/logo for atheism and freethought. If the xtians have a cross, we have this.
That’s from http://www.atheist-symbol.info and according to that,
Atheists Alliance International is an umbrella
organization for a large number of atheist,
humanist, freethought groups around the world.
At their 2007 conference, attendees were asked
to vote for their favorite atheist symbol from
among 6 choices which had been determined
by a committee.The winner is the symbol above.
This symbol is not the symbol of AAI or of any of
its member organizations. It is meant to be a
generic symbol of freethought for the world.
I’ve thought of a way spread this symbol and the idea entailed with it by creating stickers mostly with atheist URLs attached so that awareness about atheism is spread more widely somehow.

Please pass this article on, and maybe we could start something.
Indeed, I am passing this article on in the hopes of starting something.

You’ll pass it where again?
Know those crazy bastards who force you to buy those “God is Love” stickers on the streets?
Right beside them, I hope.
You do realize that this symbol has been around awhile, right? I posted about it back in October of 2007 and did not get particularly positive reactions to the symbol. See http://tinyurl.com/4mpzah
