Symbol of scientific analysis and free open inquiry

This is the symbol for the American Atheists. The symbol is an atomic whirl with an “A” inside. The American Atheist group was founded in 1963 by Madalyn Murray O’Hair after she won a court case abolishing mandatory prayer in public schools.

The American Atheists believe that heaven exists now and we should strive to love our fellow man as opposed to god. An American Atheist uses knowledge to better the world. They emphasize critical thinking and scientific curiosity.

The American Atheist symbol is a symbol of the atomic age. It is also a symbol of the atom which is the smallest particle of an element that can exist and still maintain the properties of that element. The lower part of the symbol is open-ended. This represents the fact that new knowledge is obtained frequently and scientific theories change with new developments. The open orbital forms an A which represents atheism. The actual letter A stands for America.
