Review for Freedom From Religion, Inc., Madison, WI, USA
I've been a member of The Freedom From Religion Foundation since January of 1983. Right from the beginning I knew I had found a "home"; a place where I could be open about my atheism.
Living in a small community of mostly white Christian conservatives; the same village I had been born into, I thought nobody else in the world was a non-believer --- until I started college! Imagine my relief to find a copy of a humanist magazine in the college library one day, discovering that there were at least tens of thousands of folks like me!
Today I live in a rural Amish area. I feel more at home here than I ever did in the community in which I was raised. These folks are very religious, but not one of them has ever proselytized or made me feel unwelcome. If all Christians were as Christian as my Amish neighbors, what a wonderful world this would be. (Thank you, Sam Cooke.)
The day my copy of the FFRF's "Freethought Today" newspaper arrives is usually the brightest day of the month for me, and I read it cover to cover the day it hits my mailbox.
