Thanks to reader Paul, Seventh-day Atheist is now on Urban Dictionary:
Someone who still participates in Seventh Day Adventist activities, such as going to church, but has personally rejected belief in God. Often feels that they cannot tell their friends and family about their lack of belief for fear of rejection.
You may recognize this from a recent Chariots of Iron episode by that name or the Ex-Adventist and Seventh-day Atheist group on Atheist Nexus.
I have to say, it’s quite exciting to have now started an internet meme. Its even more exciting that my efforts in crafting the definition for it’s use on Chariots of Iron was not in vain, since the now official definition does not apply to me.

Congrats! I could wish that it had been spelled Seventh-day Atheist, rather than Seventh Day Atheist, since that would parallel the construction of the source material.

I always try to encourage the proper punctuation and capitalization, but it's an uphill battle.
