Atheist glurge? I have never heard of such a thing! I’m sure it can’t be worse then ubersweet Christian glurge (which is on a par with Thomas Kinkaid paintings) or that special needs glurge…UGH! All of the special needs glurge is basicly “oh boo hoo hoo! Wittle Smashlie has a disabilty, and will never be normal! Oh boohoo hoo!”
