Noticed this while searching for Atheist (the band) shirts on ebay. Could be a religious person fighting back? Ebay Shirt Auction

Um, no, I think it's the anti-religious community poking fun at those gullible enough to believe in religion itself.

Clearly you missed the point.

For those who'll look at this post after ebay has removed the item, I'll quote the shirt. It said, "God made me an athiest"

That kicks ass! I want one!

Fourtyrulz

Heh...

I still think you guys are still missing the point, but I won't explain why yet...refer to my original post. They probably pulled the auction because of an error. *wink wink*

Apparently God used up all the "personality juice" making them an atheist, and left out a small thing called "spelling".

I think what Fourtyrulz is pointing out is that the title of the auction contains the 'product code' WT-119; World Trade (center) 11 September?

They spelled ATHEIST wrong on the shirt.

Very funny! You wont believe me, but I at least got the mis-spelling before scroling down... Didn't notice the title though!

So why would that be a religious person fighting back?

The shirt is supposed to be making an ironic statement, probably meant to offend people of religion. By misspelling athEIst you make the statement and the wearer of the shirt look rediculous. I can't imagine a better scenario than someone walking up to the shirt-wearer and telling them that their seemingly witty shirt actually makes them look stupid.

Man, this thread stopped being funny 10 posts ago...

It could mean that, but it also could mean they just fucked up making the shirt.

Not as ridiculous as someone who can't spell "ridiculous" correctly...
