We cannot allow corporations to tread over any religious belief.

Heathen is a religious term. Just as someone cannot trademark the term "Christian," or "Jewish" the term "Heathen" cannot be trademarked.

Heathen means of the heath or backwardness. It nowadays refers to religions that are not Christians, Jewish or Muslims. Heathens identify under many peoples. Hell, I was call a heathen by my grandmother for not washing my hands before eating. Am I going to be sued?

You can't trademark a generic word descriptive of a religious practice. I am a Heathen. Defined as, noun: 1. an individual of a people that do not believe in the God of the Bible; a person who is neither Jewish, Christian, or Muslim; a Pagan. 2. One of a people or community observing a polytheistic religion.

No one should "own" certain words, heathen is one of them.

Of all the petty, ridiculous trademarks/copyrights...! Yeesh. Heathen is a religion, and also a word that people use on a semi-regular basis! You can't freaking trademark that! It's stupid, greedy, capitalistic, and rude to do so, and yeah - this guy's trademark should be revoked.

Try telling literally anyone in the South that they can’t use “Heathen” due to trademark, and they are literally going to laugh in your face. It belongs to no one, and to be so arrogant to try and take it, is laughable in itself.

I'm a Heathen and proud of it. They can't own our words any more than they can own the gods themselves. Or should they try and charge admission to Valhalla?

Heathen is a very general term used when describing many ancient faiths and philosophies. I believe it violates religious freedom copyrighting heathen.

I’m pretty positive the “Heathen” religion has been around many centuries before this business owner decided to claim the word as his own personal belonging. Capitalism corporate greed at its finest.

as a real heathen pagan This is an insult to me and also my fellow heathen brothers and sisters No one claims rights to the name heathens not even to a Christian Christians cannot be heathens to think they can get away with it being A heathen is a connection to your Viking ancestors but this man is only in it for the money. Christians are trying to take over our religion and our bloodline it's our turn to take it back.

No human has a right to own words for personal gain or harm of others.
