Can't we think of a better word than ATHEIST?

Say atheist, and own it man. We can't back away from it just because it has negative connotations. The opposite is true. We need to own that name, define its meaning through aggressive debate. Simply put, the truth is worth fighting for.

Being called an atheist isn't a bad thing. You got to take back the word, just like the one dude in Clerks 2 was trying to take back his saying.

I am nor crazy about labeling large groups of people, but the fact is, it is a strong attitude and it needs to be out there louder. I just bought my first Atheist T shirt, man the looks you get are priceless, highly recommended.

Atheist - militant and proud of it.

Intolerant god haters...lol. Why not?

I like the point you are bringing up. I never really thought of it like that before. I think in the end atheist works just fine though.

lol

I've read (here in R&S) someone propose the word "free thinkers", which, in my humble thumbs down worthy opinion, is a little hypocrite.

Peheaps "spiritual naturalist" Is good denomination (hey, it seems like a great one, and i just made it up).
