OUT

image

the RDF just announced the launch of the OUT campaign in an effort for atheists to openly declare their status. the scarlet letter logo is quite nice -- i've added it to my sidebar -- and the t-shirts and stickers reinforce support.

i'd like a coffee mug or keychain myself.

in any case, it's high time to get rid of the closet.

3 pearls of wisdom:

  1. just out of curiosity, tribbles, how "out" are you amongst your friends, loved ones, and co-workers/neighbors (notice the three categories). ;)

    i'm "out" to a few friends, couple loved ones, and most co-workers/neighbors.

  2. i'm 'out' to everyone who knows me on a personal or friendly basis family/partner, friends and colleagues. have always been.

    except for one long-distance friend, none of the adults are, as far as i know, atheists.

    i guess i'm lucky in that i've never had to go through this process. i can hardly imagine how difficult it must be.
