About this episode
SPONSORED BY: http://www.naturebox.com/thinkingatheist
It's one thing to reject a belief in gods. It's another thing to actually broadcast that information to religious family, friends, employers, neighbors and even total strangers.
In many instances, the consequences can be significant. Families divide. Friends disappear. Voices are raised. Accusations are made. In certain regions and cultures, the word "atheist" can get you hurt or killed.
So what are some of the best tactics for "coming out" as a non-believer? In this show, we explore the subject, take your calls, and speak with Greta Christina about her new book, "Coming Out Atheist: How to Do it, How to Help Each Other, and Why?" http://freethoughtblogs.com/greta/2014/03/07/coming-out-atheist-ordering-info/
