It is rather amusing that we and the CatLicks both chose “The Scarlet Letter” as our icon.

I mean, shouldn’t an “Out” campaign use a giant pink “O”?

Obviously, nothing is copywrit in stone.

I say, let ‘em have at it. If we googlebomb the image, maybe they’ll all end up on our sites anyway.

Didn’t someone suggest to Dawkins that he should take out a “copyleft” on it?

I’m confused about why anybody would want a big red “A” to represent something they believe in. Seriously. All I ever think of is “adultery.”

Obviously, he’s an atheist.

The baffling thing is that what got me to his website in the first place was his page on the "Gravity is just a theory" parody. An odd piece to find on such a site, but, then again, there are religious people out there who understand the theory of evolution and what it means. I often forget that.

While we may not own the letter A, doesn’t Dawkins (or his foundation) own the rights to that particular stylized red A?

Kinda like Microsoft own the right to the blue E.

The picture appears to be an intentional reference to Dawkins. Hey, it does indicate at least vague familiarity with what’s going down among atheists.

Maybe he’s an adulterer, and posting the scarlet letter on his website is part of his penance. Ever think of that?
