Are you an atheist, agnostic, or secular "none" who feels isolated and afraid of being ostracized or persecuted by radical religionists? Are you a political progressive, advocate for gender equality, or member of the LGBTQ+ or neurodivergent communities who has often been accused of being irreligious and been accused of lacking morals and religious values by Christian nationalists and MAGA extremists? Might you potentially be viewed as a threat to the rise of politicized religion that is sweeping the globe? If so, this guide is for you. Don't be afraid. Even in this era where religious and crypto-religious extremists are seizing political power, including in the pluralistic US and Western Europe, we seasoned atheists are here to embrace and support you, and we're growing in number. This guide, grounded in the spirit of humanism, rationalism, and empathy, is geared toward the intellectually curious novice and religiously savvy secularist alike. It offers thirty-five actionable insights that can help you to foster mutual understanding and respect, promote peaceful coexistence amid diversity -- and go into full survivalist or combat mode when necessary. Testimonial "Whether you're a brand-new baby atheist struggling to make sense of it all, or a battle-hardened heretic increasingly alarmed by the ongoing political nightmare that is our current reality, this handy guidebook has what you need to understand and fight against the threat of religio-fascism - or to survive under theo-fascist oppression." -David Fitzgerald, Author of Nailed and The Complete Heretic's Guide to Western Religion series, including The Mormons and Jesus: Mything in Action
