I wouldn't really call him an "atheist spokesperson" since the terminology was so confused back when he was still alive and speaking (more so than it is now), Carl Sagan was a fantastic source of pro-skepticism, pro-science, anti-bullshit critical thinking. He claimed to be an agnostic, and showed that religion and god were utterly unnecessary to investigate, learn about, and explain our reality. He of course didn't have the sort blistering literary incisions that someone like Hitchens did, but as far as a 'face' for a non-religious, pro-science worldview, Sagan was one of the best.
In every country and every age, the priest had been hostile to Liberty.
