Child abuse advocate – Pastor Sean Harris – is full of shit
May 4th, 2012
Justin Griffith By now you’ve probably heard about Pastor Sean Harris endorsing violence against children who demonstrate homosexual behavior. He lives here right outside of Fort Bragg. He’s a retired Sergeant Major – but don’t let that influence you, he’s batshit crazy. He’s gotten in shouting matches with our atheist group members that stretched on and on [...]
Goodnight, MASH Fort Bragg
April 30th, 2012
Justin Griffith I am so proud of all of you. Thanks for sticking in there and being the example to all the other MASH groups that are sprouting up. It’s up to you now. I’m leaving – I’m a recruiter now – hooray! Effective immediately, I’m quitting this group. I love you all (in god’s gay way) [...]
Anti-gay marriage legislation directly affects straight couples
April 27th, 2012
Priscilla On September 20, 2011 Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell was officially repealed. This was a huge victory for all the soldiers, organizations, politicians, and citizens that put their time and effort into combating DADT. Obviously, the LGBT rights issue is far from settled in the military. But here at Fort Bragg, N.C. we’ve got a special [...]
Really, Fort Bragg…Salvation Army is okay, but not atheists?
April 16th, 2012
Justin Griffith When Fort Bragg denied our plan to collect canned food at the recent Rock Beyond Belief festival, the news went viral, and was even front-paged at reddit.

Justin Griffith Todd Stiefel takes an unconventional approach to philanthropy. He put up the $50,000 at American Atheists that made our festival possible via his Stiefel Freethought Foundation.That represents 100% of the funding. Last week, we were discussing ways to soften the blow that many Christians feel we are inflicting. We’re not attacking them at all, but it’s [...]
“Nice chest hair, asshole.” This one’s for you, reddit.
March 15th, 2012
Justin Griffith Reddit’s atheist community has been extremely kind to the Rock Beyond Belief festival.Without their overwhelming support and pleas for me to keep them informed, I might have given up. But a recent picture in a news story made me think back to a surreal moment on reddit. One of my favorite things that I learned [...]
