A militia of atheists. This much should be obvious. If the intention is to say the word, knowing full well some will be offended or triggered, then go for maximum effect - if you are striking at the king meme (God) don't aim to miss. No prizes for pleasant debates on second guesses. Call it a militia and have done.
