That's a joke by the way; a mild bit of just in case Timothy there is serious in his title. I kinda think most atheists know this isn't the best way to prove that we are, by and large, sane and friendly.

Timothy's is worse.

I don't think many people think this guy, who clearly has been the object of multiple bigotries and has legitimate complaints, is representative of any group any more than WBC is representative of religion.

Check the edit. I now see why Timothy's headline is worse.
