Atheists Worldwide

‎"I'm reluctant to use the word atheist, to describe my own unshakable disbelief. And that's not because I'm ashamed, afraid or even embarrassed, simply because it seems so self-evidently true to myself that there is no God that giving that conviction a special title somehow dignifies what it denies. After all we don't have a special word for people who don't believe in ghosts or witches. On the o

ther hand that doesn't mean that I think it was scarcely worth bothering with a series of this length. On the contrary, there is a long history of atrocity committed in the name of religion and an equally long history of truly heroic opposition.
So in a sense this series is well, a tribute to those who have won for me and many others, the right to stand up and be counted."
