Openly Secular day is November 15th. Let at least one person know you don't buy into what the religionists are selling. And may I suggest the book Fighting God: An Atheist Manifesto for a Religious World by David Silverman.
> I think it would have been a better billboard if it was kinda polite.
The current president of American Atheists disagrees. (And I also have to agree with him.)
Luckily we as a movement have room and need for firebrands (as he self describes) and diplomats. If you're more interested in his thinking and why he'll always go for the most provocative message I'd suggest giving his book Fighting God: An Atheist Manifesto for a Religious World a read.
It isn't terribly groundbreaking as far as literature on atheism goes but it does offer his thinking on the movement going forward and offers a defense of his tactics grounded in analytics of interest and revolving around media amplification via controversy (tl;dr: having controversial billboards gets them on the news, giving them hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars of free press in the process; its about visibility). Personally I think he has a good point, but to each their own.
My uncle is David Silverman, he wrote this book

I recommend you read Fighting God by David Silverman. It makes the case for atheist activism, among many other things. I think it would be a good next step after AMFCA.
