À propos de cet e-book

This essential guide to coming-out as a non-believer has been written to
make it easier for atheists, agnostics, freethinkers, and non-believers
of all ages and backgrounds to be open about their non-religiosity
while minimizing the negative interactions in familial, social, and
professional circles. As a survival guide for non-believers who wish to
come out, this book provides advice and resources for those interested
in publically rejecting religious dogma as well as real stories from
non-believers who have experienced coming-out to less-than-supportive
family or friends. Whether you're new to disbelief and looking for the
cleanest possible break from your former faith or you're a lifelong
atheist who wants to establish a sense of community with like-minded
people, this guide provides useful resources including: tips for
handling potential conflicts with believers, the author's answers to
some of the most frequently asked questions on behalf of believers, and
numerous references to support groups, services, and advocacy
organizations dedicated to non-theists. From dealing with grief from a
secular perspective to handling potential clashes in religious
worldviews between significant others, this book offers multiple
perspectives from non-religious individuals who have generously shared
their experiences to help those atheists who may find themselves in
similar situations.
