The Tulsa, Ok. group got 10 billboards along some major arteries in town. Put pictures of some Atheist families to show they didn't have hornes or tails. Almost needed flack jackets. Caused a bit of a stir.

Hold the Christians heads under water until they convert. Hey, it worked for them.

OK, kidding, kind of....

Where was I?

Hold a forum like a debate. That might invite a hostile enviorment if not done right.

Put up a booth at a farmer's market or community fair. Wonder if there are any non religious tchotchkes to give away at those things?

It does not require a lot of physical labor. the hardest part is logistics it needs an organized leader first and formost then a couple of spokespersons .
it might just get the old farts blood pumping.
planning ahead is crucial.

You will be calling for murder...I have a sign "I am an Atheist" that sometimes I place on the rear window of my car....believe me when I tell you that few drivers have insulted me -big words- each time I placed the sign up.

BTW, A guy who was e/mailing death threats to Atheists in Canada has been caught by the police.

I either missed the joke or I can't believe it. Isn't the whole idea of being an atheist is to not spread the idea. I thought that was one of the main *premissis behind it. Leave people alone and just nod your head in front of them then shake your head as you leave.

If you read the entire thread its not about "spreading the word"but clearing up missconceptions about atheists in general.
As in one I hear on a common basis "atheist are without any morals" also "atheist worship the devil"
this the type of thing that keep people from taking atheist opinions as serious in a debate.

A sign saying "I am an Atheist" is not spreading the idea.

We might make some of the members think. Thinking is what the church considers dangerous. Thinking means people come up with new ideas. Can't have that.

The best out-reach starts with identifying the target audience. I tend to believe that your best bet are the non-believing Christians who stick to the church out of social pressure. I believe there is a threshold that, when met, will cause the church to completely collapse. In a similar way that smoking became no longer cool once most people stopped smoking, religion will lose its appeal as well and drive massive defections once awareness of the growing numbers of atheists become apparent.

A simple ad campaign that raises awareness to the growing number of non-children-eating atheists is a great start. This is a war of information. Remember, Christians are not the enemy, they are the victims. If churches rally against your ad campaign, that can translate into free publicity for you if you handle it properly.
