Heathen is a RELIGION, not just a word. You should NOT be able to trademark or copywrite a religion's name!

The name Heathen has been around longer than the company. Heathen is way of life and religion , putting a patent on the name heathen would be like putting a patent on the name of christianity.

How in the heck can some one trade mark the name of a religion and culture , that is like telling Christians they can't call them self Christian any more … seriously ----

No one would be allowed to trademark "Christian" in the US, and this should be regarded no differently.

Not a word to be trade marked. It existed long ago and belongs to not one individual but a group of people.

We will use our word heathen regardless of any law or trademark. The entity responsible for this mess is exploiting trademark law for malevolent purposes. Whoever allowed this to happen is party to it.

Heathen is a very old word, with cognates in many language including Frisian, the closest living language to English. It is a word that means faith in the Old Gods, in Odin the God of Wisdom, in His holy wife Frigg who blesses our homes and our spiritual visions, in Thor who protects this world from destruction. It is a word that people of our faith were killed for in previous times. Many of us pray to and honor the older, good and virtuous Gods and Goddesses. From a legal standpoint: look at the history, look at prior usage and the history across languages. This is not a word that can be "owned" by one person or individual. From a moral standpoint, it is as as fundamentally wrong as trying to trademark any word for a faith, e.g., "Christian" as a trademark, or for that matter "The Sun" as a trademark. Hail to Forseti, our own God of rightful laws and outcomes... may the good prevail.

This word should never be trademarked. My religious/spiritual beliefs and identity should not be owned by another, especially for the purpose of monetary profit.
