Boulder Atheists wish to promote the understanding and
acceptance of atheism with public education, good deeds and public activities. Although we
welcome members who wish to discuss the subject, our main goal is activism.
People often ask us, "Why does one join a group like the Boulder Atheists? In other words, why take the last step in the nonbelievers' journey and publicly admit you are an atheist?" Our answer is that you will understand why we are involved when your child comes home from a public school with a religious article they received from their teacher. You will also understand when you are a member of a "State" organization such as the military or a federal, state, or local government department and are forced to participate in denominational prayers. When you observe the human rights violations that take place around the world when there is no separation of religion and government, then you will know why this web site is here.
Another question that people ask is, "Why use the word, 'Atheist'? Why not something less provocative such as secular humanist." No matter what name we use, fundamentalist religious groups will denigrate us. Atheists describes us: people who do not believe in gods. One of our goals is to remove the stigma from the word and to make it acceptable.
