Athiest* (for Atheist*)

Human beings were created in the image of God, according to those who believe in Him. But those who don't might be reflecting on an altogether different question: Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the "athiest" of all? It seems to be a highly competitive field at the moment, featuring such critical and comedic commentators as Christopher Hitchens, Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett, Sam Harris, the late George Carlin, and now—with a new movie in release called Religulous (a seeming mashup of religious and ridiculous or incredulous)—TV talk show host and standup comic Bill Maher. Athiest* shows its face 19 times in OhioLINK and Athiesm* twice.
