This message is not a slogan to attract attention but an invitation to all freethinking minds
Forces of theocracy, religious extremism, and nationalism pose a mortal threat to democracy and human rights, including the rights and humanity of nonbelievers. Blasphemy and apostasy laws are in force in many African countries. Religious politicians use them to deny the rights to freedom of religion or belief and freedom of expression of minority religious and belief groups.
At this moment in history, humanists, skeptics, and freethinkers cannot afford to be complacent. They must be vigilant and resist the slow undoing of human and intellectual progress by religious fanatics. The threats of religious extremism and superstition-based abuses are real. They are not African or American. They are global.
“We will fulfill the need to belong and be loved that lurks in the hearts and minds of nontheists across the globe. Based on commitment to all and responsibility from all, we can do more and we can do better. Let us answer this call to duty, rally, and fuse our local energies to realise a more effective global atheist/humanist movement.
