admin /

Aerial Banners? Read here for details.

Photos of the aerial banners are starting to come in! American Atheists paid for the banners in 26 states on July 4th. As of writing this, it is 4:00 p.m. EST and there are still a few aerial banners yet to fly, so keep sending those photos in! You can send your photos to bscott at atheists dot org.

If we post your photo here, you'll get a free American Atheists Convention t-shirt!

How does atheism imply American patriotism? Atheists can be anarchists, nihilists, Communists, traitors, one-world-government types, French, German, Icelandic or whatever they want to be.

How does atheism imply American patriotism?

It doesn't. It can be just as patriotic as any other mindset.
You probably haven't heard the more insulting commentary over the years, about how being an atheist is anything BUT American.
(Cute nick, BTW.)
