The Texas Hill Country used to be a place for Freethinkers, leftists, abolitionists, atheists, and scientists. The towns of Comfort and Sisterdale loomed particularly large.

Edit: A huge thanks to Hemant Mehta of The Friendly Atheist blog for sharing my video! You can find his blog post here: http://www.patheos.com/blogs/friendlyatheist/2017/05/25/this-is-a-great-rebuttal-to-the-idea-that-atheists-are-more-arrogant-than-believers/

Original description:
Is atheism inherently prideful? Plenty of religious people seem to think so. Here's my take on the subject.

I realize not all atheists think as I do, as atheism is a singular position, not a worldview. However, I do think my argument applies for most skeptical atheists and most faithful religious people.

Thanks to the many atheists of reddit who voiced their opinion on this subject and helped me get inspired to make this video! You can see that conversation here: https://www.reddit.com/r/atheism/comments/6cekzh/is_atheism_prideful/

From the Fellowship Foundation funding David Bahati, to the Religious Right inventing the abortion issue to gain power, to oil companies indoctrinating millions to vote against working class interests, American-influenced Christianity is responsible for a lot of terror. But is fighting all this from the inside the best way to resist?

Religious summer camps are tools of indoctrination. Many such camps use cultish manipulation techniques to sell their message. That's why I'm volunteering at Camp Quest Texas, a summer camp for atheist and freethinking kids, this summer from June 18th-24th. There, I'll be encouraging kids to think critically without imposing my own beliefs on them.

Jordan Peterson’s craziest claim ever didn’t come from his talk with Cathy Newman, it wasn’t in his chat with Sam Harris about truth, and it wasn’t made in conversation with Matt Dillahunty. It was in his Maps of Meaning lecture part 8 and his Biblical series. Representation of DNA? More like pseudoscience.

We can’t beat the Religious Right with debate alone. We have to organize to take back power from them.
