Come OUT

Atheists have always been at the forefront of rational thinking and beacons of enlightenment, and now you can share your idealism by being part of the OUT Campaign.

Atheists are far more numerous than most people realize. COME OUT of the closet! You'll feel liberated, and your example will encourage others to COME OUT too. (Don't "out" anybody else, wait for them to OUT themselves when they are ready to do so).

The OUT Campaign allows individuals to let others know they are not alone. It can also be a nice way of opening a conversation and help to demolish the negative stereotypes of atheists. Let the world know that we are not about to go away and that we are not going to allow those that would condemn us to push us into the shadows.

As more and more people join the OUT Campaign, fewer and fewer people will feel intimidated by religion. We can help others understand that atheists come in all shapes, sizes, colours and personalities. We are labourers and professionals. We are mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, sisters, brothers and grandparents. We are human (we are primates) and we are good friends and good citizens. We are good people who have no need to cling to the supernatural.

It is time to let our voices be heard regarding the intrusion of religion in our schools and politics. Atheists along with millions of others are tired of being bullied by those who would force their own religious agenda down the throats of our children and our respective governments. We need to KEEP OUT the supernatural from our moral principles and public policies.

It is time to step up and...

We have many exciting activities and plans for the OUT Campaign, so be sure to watch OutCampaign.org for the latest developments!

Comment by Friend of Dorothy on August 6, 2009 at 6:19pm: I just received my Scarlet Letter tee shirt and proudly wear it on the weekends. I have received mixed comments on it: is that for Athletic, is that for Adultry, does it mean you are an a** hole? Each time when I explain, the look on their faces if worth the price of the shirt:)

Comment by Kitty on July 13, 2009 at 10:40pm: Damn! Jumped in what parking lot?

Comment by Bryanderthal on July 13, 2009 at 7:27pm: Hello fellow comer-outers and comer-outer-helpers! For campaign gear please go to outcampaign.org . Of course, you could be as hardcore as I am and just get it tattooed on your wrist... haha! It never fails - Someone will always ask about it whenever I'm out and about. Of course it did get me jumped in a parking lot the other day but no worries, I didn't hurt the Christians too much.

Comment by Kristi Leitholt on July 10, 2009 at 10:28pm: I have to confess that I have yet to "come out" all the way--my parents are still unaware that I don't believe. I've come very close to telling them several times, but I'm afraid of the consequences! Check out my blog for more on my parents and my deconversion experience, and please give whatever advice you might have! Thanks :)

Comment by Jennifer Parsons on July 10, 2009 at 10:16pm: I'll be wearing my scarlet letter while riding the Livestrong Challenge on Sunday. So far I have yet to bump into anyone else wearing one...sigh.

Comment by Michael Cooper on July 10, 2009 at 8:09pm: I have Dawkins' scarlet letter A as my avatar at PokerStars. Sometimes people think it means Alabama! I have to chuckle and say that it means nearly the opposite.

Comment by Joao Maria on July 7, 2009 at 1:53pm: Hi friends. Its a pleasure for me participate of this campaign. I want to buy an Out campaign shirt. Could you help me? Hugs.

Comment by Will Soares on June 9, 2009 at 11:08am: Lol, no, not 'adulterer' at all! Ive received some rather hard stares from those who were driving behind me and happen to pull up next to me. Strangely enough, they all had this really odd 'fish' on the back of their cars...hmmm, maybe they're all fishermen or something, lol!
