Sometimes there will be a delay of a few days from the time we received a translation until it's posted to the web. If any translations are pending posting they will be listed below so that you won't be submitting a duplicate translation. Other languages are still needed. When submitting please just copy/paste the English version and then insert the translated portions after each paragraph. Most languages are completely unknown to us so we need to be able to clearly see where the the appropriate html tags and images should go. This is especially true for languages that do not use a Western character set such as Hebrew, Arabic, Chinese etc. Many thanks for the clear help that the submitters have provided.

Atheists have always been at the forefront of rational thinking and beacons of enlightenment, and now you can share your idealism by being part of the OUT Campaign.
Atheists are far more numerous than most people realize. COME OUT of the closet! You'll feel liberated, and your example will encourage others to COME OUT too. (Don't "out" anybody else, wait for them to OUT themselves when they are ready to do so).
The OUT Campaign allows individuals to let others know they are not alone. It can also be a nice way of opening a conversation and help to demolish the negative stereotypes of atheists. Let the world know that we are not about to go away and that we are not going to allow those that would condemn us to push us into the shadows.
As more and more people join the OUT Campaign, fewer and fewer people will feel intimidated by religion. We can help others understand that atheists come in all shapes, sizes, colours and personalities. We are labourers and professionals. We are mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, sisters, brothers and grandparents. We are human (we are primates) and we are good friends and good citizens. We are good people who have no need to cling to the supernatural.
It is time to let our voices be heard regarding the intrusion of religion in our schools and politics. Atheists along with millions of others are tired of being bullied by those who would force their own religious agenda down the throats of our children and our respective governments. We need to KEEP OUT the supernatural from our moral principles and public policies.
It is time to step up and...
We have many exciting activities and plans for the OUT Campaign, so be sure to watch OutCampaign.org for the latest developments.
