As a practicing heathen I feel this issue is completely avoidable and infringes not only the ones directly impacted by this action but everyone that is part of this religion.

Certainly trademarking a business name such as "Heathen Nation," makes sense. But the word Heathen has been in common usage for many many many years. It was not invented in 2001

Im a heathen running a Heathen Norse group and my members have trades and such that are directly affected by the current standings. And this is how they provide for their families, and lets not forget it is our religion and we have a constitutional right to the freedom of religion.

Trying to trademark another person's religion is the lowest form of scumbaggery.

Being allowed to trademark the common name of a religious group is absurd! You might as well be allowed to trademark Christian or Jew. We are Heathens, and no one owns the rights to us!

Would you trademark Christian? Religious? Spiritual? Protestant? No! It's ridiculous to trademark heathen and respect all other religious identity terminologies.

I don't understand how the word Heathen ever met criteria to be trademarked? it refers to a larger amount of people than you think

If the courts can not find in favor of this petition: I will be taking trademarks on numerous religious terms.. Christian.. christ.. christianity.. baptist, lutheran, etc until the court sees reason.

Heathens don't make a racist. Smash racist culture. Stop ridiculous copyright...

This trademarked word has been used for centuries to describe a religion... It would fall within the same category as trademarking the word Christian, Jewish or Muslim...

Someone that isnt a heathen can not own the rights to the word nor would a real heathen try and take this from his folk.

The man isn't even a Heathen himself - thus he should not prevent any individual using the term representing a branch of Paganism subscribed to by many thousands of people.

On behalf of Folkish Heathens everywhere this is wrong & illegal I think - you can't copyright the name of a religion

No word belongs to any one man. Especially not a word used to describe a religious affiliation like Heathen. No one should be able to be sued for using a religious word by a greedy man. Freedom to all Heathens.
