Mind Bends: Mini-Cryptic Crossword #1

I love cryptic crossword puzzles.  Some people never get them, some think the New York Times daily crossword is "difficult".  For those who enjoy more of a challenge, this is for you.

For those not familiar with cryptic crossword puzzles try out the Easy Daily Cryptic on the Best For Puzzles website.  (Of course, "easy" is a relative term, depending on who is talking...)  Sometimes the clues involve locations in the UK, which most people won't know.  There are many cryptic crosswords free to try only, most notably being notoriously difficult Guardian newspaper cryptics.  I can do the Best For Puzzles dailies in about 15 minutes, but barely half of a Guardian cryptic in 24 hours.

What makes my cryptic crosswords different?  Mainly the atheist theme in many of the clues, keep that in mind as you try them.  The answers can be found far down this same page, after 25 blank lines with periods.
