An Atheist Church in London





NY Daily News Article
Quote:With speakers ranging from children's authors to particle physicists, The Sunday Assembly's motto is "Live better, help often, wonder more."

“The point isn’t to put down other religions, it’s to say, we don’t have faith, but what do we have?” Evans said.

Next month’s sermon is titled “Lend a Hand,” and will focus on the need to volunteer to better the world. That civic-mindedness may be one reason that the Sunday Assembly has received such a warm welcome in the community.

“We’ve had a pretty positive response from people of faith. Hardly anyone seems to be saying anything negative.” Evans said. “Atheists, in fact, seem to be the ones most upset with us because some say we’re creating a religion.”

"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
