"I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours."

Have you ‘come out’ to those close to you?
Being a member of both the LGBT and atheist communities, I’ve seen a lot of parallels between the two—especially in how it can be difficult to publicly self-identify as either when your family or friends disagree. Based on conversations I’ve had with other humanists and atheists as well as the results from this poll conducted here on TDH, this isn’t an unusual situation.
So tell me, followers—have you come out of the not-so-Godfearing closet?

"I’m an atheist, but while atheism only describes what I’m not—someone who doesn’t believe in God—humanism describes what I am: someone who also feels a commitment to scientific principles, behaving ethically, and doing my part to make the world a better place."
