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). <div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://cdn.cloudfiles.mosso.com/c116811/reachout.gif" alt="reach out" /></div> 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.  <div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://cdn.cloudfiles.mosso.com/c116811/speakout.gif" alt="speak out" /></div> 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. <div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://cdn.cloudfiles.mosso.com/c116811/keepout.gif" alt="keep out" /></div> 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... <div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://cdn.cloudfiles.mosso.com/c116811/standout.gif" alt="stand out" /></div> We have many exciting activities and plans for the OUT Campaign, so be sure to watch for the latest developments.
