Finally, a jeans maker that doesn't support Christianity! Whew.

STOCKHOLM, Sweden - Cheap Monday jeans are a hot commodity among young Swedes thanks to their trendy tight fit and low price, even if a few buyers are turned off by the logo: a skull with a cross turned upside down on its forehead.

Logo designer Bjorn Atldax says he's not just trying for an antiestablishment vibe.

"It is an active statement against Christianity," Atldax told The Associated Press. "I'm not a Satanist myself, but I have a great dislike for organized religion."

The label's makers say it's more of a joke, but Atldax insists his graphic designs have a purpose beyond selling denim: to make young people question Christianity, a "force of evil" that he blames for sparking wars throughout history.

In more religious countries, that might raise a furious response, maybe even prompt retailers to drop the brand.

Not in Sweden, a secular country that cherishes its free speech and where churchgoing has been declining for decades.

Thor and Odin are much cooler than Jesus anyway.

More power to him, maybe it'll catch on in a wider arena than just the great northern wastes.

I was called assless chap once.. Then I ate my vegetables and worked out like a good little bitch. Now everywhere I go, these unoriginal assholes keep yelling out, "Hey, there goes mounds !!"

edit: Just imagine if these jeans ever got holes in them.. what a walking contradiction.

Pair these with a Christian throwback jersey (christianthrowbackjersey.com) and you've got an instant conversation starter.
