The website Atheist Revolution says about the atheists eat babies meme:
{{Cquote|I've always liked this particular meme. It manages to be silly while simultaneously poking fun at [[Christianity|Christians]] for some of the absurd things they believe about atheists.

''See also:'' [[Atheism and satanic deception]]
As far as dark humor, another reason why the meme may have developed is that many people mistakenly associate [[atheism]] with [[Satanism]] and satanists have been involved in the ritualistic infant sacrifices. Although [[LaVeyan Satanism]] is a form of [[atheism]], it does not hold that [[Satan]] is real being. Specifically, LaVeyan Satanism is a form of atheism which extolls the values of Satan which are described in the [[Bible]]. It is a very [[pride]]ful and [[hedonism|hedonistic]] worldview. Some specific characteristics of Leveyan Satanism is that it incorporates egoism, self-deification, the [[occult]]/magic, [[Social Darwinism]] and [[Naturalism (philosophy)|naturalism]]. It was found by Anton LeVey in 1966.
