The answers
You’ll find the answers to our competition below our new video—take a look at it. It explains what we stand for, why we are here and what we do.
What is Atheist Alliance International?
Atheist Alliance International exists to help move the world towards a more rational and fairer place, where religion is a private matter that does not intrude on the lives of the non-religious. Where governments work in the interests of all and not in the interests of those who share their religious superstitions, and where policy is made based on the best evidence available and not in accordance with religious dogma.
Religious people should be free to practice their religions within the limits of secular law and non-religious should be free not to practice a religion. Everyone should be free to express their opinions about any religion and to change their religion or leave their religion as their conscience dictates.
Honestly, this is not asking much but many countries are miles away from these modest aims. In many countries, being an atheist is to risk your life, your family, your liberty, and your livelihood. If the state does not apprehend you, your family, neighbors or local religious thugs might do the job for them.
So our job is to normalize atheism, to educate people and to protect those who are at risk. We do most of our work supporting secular groups who are affiliated to us. If you agree with our aims, do something to help. You can sign up for our newsletter, become a member of just give us a donation. Everything we do costs money and every year we have to turn down useful campaigns through lack of money. Another way to help is to volunteer or, if you belong to a secular group, ask them to become an affiliate.
Whatever you do, please do something.
