No contest like this is complete without the Honorable Mentions. They may not have made the Top Ten, but they were amusing, shocking, or otherwise entertaining…

FriendlyAtheistBand

If you’d like to win your own wristband, here is the new contest (Thanks to reader Matt for the suggestion!):

You’ve heard of Yo Mama jokes? (e.g. Yo mama is so ugly that when she joined an ugly contest, they said “Sorry, no professionals.”)

Well, finish this statement:

Funny and creative answers will have a shot at winning.

Good luck!

    [my .02]

    This is a great place. I wouldn’t by any means call myself an atheist, but if other Christians were more like you folks, there wouldn’t BE any problems between the two groups. I keep having to tell them that freedom OF religion is freedom FROM religion. And humorless fucks…er, folks that they are, THEY DON’T GET IT! Like haranguing and insulting people are going to REALLY make ‘em want to convert. No pun intended, but God forbid they should actually ACT like Christians.

    I love you guys, and not in the usual smarmy Christian way. By my way of thinking, this is a nice place to be.
