Boxes sealed with ATHEIST tape lost by USPS 10X more often than controls
Atheist Shoes in Berlin noticed that a disproportionate number of their shipments to the USA were delayed or lost. A customer suggested this may be because USPS workers were taking offense at the ATHEIST packing tape they used to seal the boxes. So the company tried an A/B split, and found that boxes emblazoned with ATHEIST tape were 10 times more likely to go missing in the USPS and took an average of three days longer than their generic equivalents. They've stopped using the ATHEIST packing tape.

Re: USPS Loses Atheist Mail
But from a practical stand point, why call yourself Atheist Shoe Company? Seems like you're just looking to limit your market.
Wing nuts. Not just for breakfast anymore.

I only use atheist tape on special occasions. All other times I use holy tape.

I do find the Atheist shoe to have less walk-on-water-ability than other
similarly priced shoes.

And let us not forget the obvious; Atheist shoes have no sole.
