I'm sorry, but this bugs me.
The arguement against religion is an intellectual one, based on reason and evidence. This "contest" turns it into a game.
"Deny the Holy Spirit and win free stuff!"
It is just crass.
You can't blaspheme that wich doesn't exist.
By having a contest like this you perpetuate the notion that atheists are against God, as if God were real and needed to be opposed.
We need to focus on spreading reason, not slandering fictional dieties.
