“The New Jersey Department of Motor Vehicles initially refused to allow American Atheists President David Silverman to order a vanity license plate that said ‘ATHE1ST,’ but relented when the refusal began to draw media attention. Silverman, he said, ‘applied online for a custom plate that reads ‘ATHE1ST.’ ATHEIST with an ‘i’ was already taken. He got a reply on the 26th that they’re denying it because it’s ‘Objectionable or Need Further Clarification.’’ Silverman called the DMV and was told by an employee that his request was denied on the grounds that the message on the pate would be considered ‘offensive.'”
