About this episode
Is atheism a replacement for religion? Or is atheism simply another religion?
As non-theists and freethought groups organize, gather and even sometimes attend things like the "Sunday assembly," the charge is often heard that the godless are acting religious, that their adherence to science is "faith," and that their gatherings are just anothe form of church.
In this show, we explore the question. And we hear from David Silverman, President of one of the largest atheist (religious???) organizations in the world.
