Eugh.

I mean, it’s not wrong, but this has the energy of a Facebook meme for people who make atheism their entire personality.

If I saw someone with this mug I would probably avoid them.

Yeah stuff like this is cringe.

Science isn't a culture or a belief system, nor is it a substitute for those things. Science isn't an aesthetic or a political or group ideology.

A lot of religions don't even make scientific claims.

Bruh my grandma gave me this mug like 10 years ago. The same one that believes high schools were installing litter boxes for students.

That's the power of intentional misinformation

The comments about this cup are funny in how pedantic they, given the point of the cup to me is the spirit of it. It is not surprising to see the science positive crowd be so analytic about it though, and actually slightly reassuring.
