Statistics around the world and right here in the United States are showing that secular views are sharply on the rise. People are fed up with being judged and bullied by pious, condescending dogmas and their followers. We are witnessing the dawn of a new age, when humans are realizing the value and potential of our individuality and intelligence. The times of being made to feel ashamed or subordinate for asking logical, reasonable questions and demanding evidence for ridiculous claims are over. It’s alright to have the confidence to think for yourself and to trust in your own, logical conclusions. It’s alright to come out of the atheist closet. You are not evil. You are not weird. You are not stupid. You are not damned. You are not alone.
