I am an atheist?

Hi,yes I am an atheist however I need help.A few weeks ago some one put a link on Q/A.It is haunting me,it was showing animals being butchered for there fur dogs & cats.I have 64 signatures however need 200 for some one in the government to look at the petition.if you can find it in your heart to sign this petition.Please do & Thank You

http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/bloodyhands

Update:

There is no intention to disrespect anyone.i had to put I am an atheist to get a re-action.i have put the petition in different sections.

Update 2:

The link is not the one i looked at.it is a petition for the Government it took me weeks to accept it.Thank You

Update 3:

has long as we sit back baby seals infact anything they butcher will carry on.I am no longer prepared to sit back & will do what ever i can to help.If nothing being an atheist caught your eye.

Update 4:

Rosie a boycott would be virtually impossible. i know this will have little or no effect yet if enough people sign the government have to do some thing.That's what is wrong hardly anyone believes that they have no power.We do we vote them into power.I can not sit by & do nothing.

Update 5:

Alan first i did not put a ? mark have no need to.Has for Peta having a pettition is it in the Government sector if so please give the link & I will sign it.

Thank You

Update 6:

Dennis Thank You if we ever meet I would gladly shake your hand.

    Damn. Sorry Ollie. I wanted to sign but I am not a British citizen. I'll direct some of my British comrades to the link for you however. Good Luck.

    Being atheist doesn't have anything to do with feeling compassion for something. Every year I see on the news, savages clubbing down sweet little baby seals. There is always a cry of protests to the Canadian government who allows this kind of archaic practice, but it doesn't change things.

    Why the question mark? Are you unsure about your atheism. PETA already have a similar petition, as do BUAV... Why reinvent the wheel when the job is already being done?

    I would love to but it says you have to be a British citizen to sign it.

    Oh and um...what does atheism have to do with this?

    You should try posting it on animals sections, UK section and perhaps generally in the religious section.

    Religious people may not all be vegetarians but that doesnt mean they are for cruelty.

    Oh yeah. I'm all over this, dear. :]

    I'll bulletin this on my Myspace as well, as I'm one of those people with no lives and have a ridiculous amount of 'friends'.

    Argh. But it says you have to be a UK citizen. :[

    I'll post it in a bulletin anyway.

    Apparently, a certain 'Knowitall' doesn't know of the absolutely cruel ways they get the fur. :]

    Guess she doesn't know so much after all.

    I'd sign if I could. You have to be in Britain to sign. I'm sorry. My mother sends me these sort of things all the time (she's a huge animal lover) and I sign them. If you want the links to hers I can message them to you if you want.

    Although I protest animals being used purely for fur and the treatment of those animals,

    I have no idea what this has to do with atheism.
