Synopsis
A near suicide caused by the loss of faith and family; a struggle to reconcile Christianity and homosexuality; personal liberation from fear; a purpose-driven life of social activism; a journey into music to reveal and work through childhood trauma; ostracism from communities in Louisianaand Rhode island for minority viewpoints.These are personal, emotional, human stories.Many books have presented real-life stories like these, but they often conclude with people devoting their life to God, feeling saved by Jesus, or deciding to commit themselves to religion. This book tells the stories of people who have persevered, finding truth and meaning from the opposite perspective.Through 25 personal journeys, Generation Atheist highlights a changing zeitgeist in America and the world.These are their stories.

About the Author
From 2008-2011, Dan Riley worked as a campus organizer in the outreach department at the non-profit think tank the Center for Inquiry. He got to know many secular student leaders during his time with CFI. Finding many of their personal journeys to atheism to be fascinating, compelling, and unique, he decided to create a book that tells their stories. The initial work that has resulted in Generation Atheist began at a student conference in 2009. Dan is a 2006 graduate of Duke University.
