Hi again, Mastodon! I'm on a new server, so here's a new #intro.
I'm Adam Lee, an author and activist living in NYC. I'm a columnist for OnlySky Media, a news site by and for America's growing #atheist, #secular and #nonreligious population. As a group, nonbelievers are diverse and overwhelmingly progressive, but because we're not organized like churches are, our perspective is often overlooked. OnlySky exists to give this community a voice.
The stuff I like to write about includes progressive politics, humanist philosophy, secular morality, cool science, hopeful news on climate change, the revolutionary power of optimism, and utopian dreams of a better world. If this appeals to you, I hope you'll follow me here!

@remyreedy I am so sorry. It’s down right heartbreaking when someone you love and are close with starts spewing hatred in the name of a being falsely illustrated to be a loving creator. You have support from me, and you are not alone. #LGBTQ #NonReligious #Support

#NonReligious voters wield clout, tilt heavily Democratic...
When members of the small Pennsylvania chapter of Secular Democrats of America log on for their monthly meetings, they’re not there for a virtual happy hour.
The group, mostly consisting of atheists and agnostics, mobilizes to knock on doors and make phone calls on behalf of Democratic candidates “who are pro-science, pro-democracy,

When I start a family, since I plan on raising my children #nonreligious we are going to allow each family member to pick one or two days of the year and they can make the “holiday” be whatever theme and activities they want! It’s a fun and engaging idea for #atheist families that do not wish to raise their children with religious holidays!
