American Atheists is working to build a better America — where atheists and nonreligious people can participate fully, without discrimination or stigma, and where all people are guaranteed equality.
We’re bringing together leaders, activists, scholars, and community members of all ages for thoughtful conversations about the future of our shared civic life, exploring how we can strengthen institutions, deepen participation, and build a more just and inclusive society.
Join us at Pacific Unitarian Church on June 20 for this special one-day event!
Our network of more than 200 affiliates provide community for atheists and fight for change at all levels of government—in their towns, their states, and in Washington DC.
Get the latest news about religious equality, church-state separation, and the fight for atheist equality across the nation. Then get involved and join the conversation on our social media.
The Founders weren’t hostile to religion. They were opposed to tyranny, and they understood a government powerful enough to impose one creed is likewise powerful enough to punish anyone outside it. I’d argue Christian Nationalists also understand this but they actually like the idea of religious tyranny so long as they’re the ones in charge.
