A few more religious symbols would make it even clearer..

Answer 4

Why do we need a symbol?  We're not organized or a cohesive group.  Atheism is different for each atheist - I think it should stay that way.  I don't want to be represented by a symbol that someone else thought up.

Answer 5

I 2nd for the picture of a human brain.  That's what makes us atheists.

Answer 6

The walking fish is cute, but it's meant to be more humorous than anything. I thought the A with the circles around it was the official symbol...?

First poster (sorry, I have no clue what your name is): I think he means this A with the circle, not the anarchy one:

Yep that's what I think

Answer 11

dude the a with the circle is for ANARCHY (aka, liberal socialism, nothing scary, we're nice people) - I'm an atheist too, but don't be stealing our anarchy symbol...

:D

Danielle: oh, thanx, I've never seen that one...it's still a bit too similar to the anarchy one though isn't it? I like the one of the stickman throwing religious symbols in the bin :)
