The Atheist Agenda is a student organization at the University of Texas at San Antonio. Our organization promotes aggressive activism against Theology and Theological institutions, encourages Atheists to take pride in their history and community, and aspires to provide to Atheists the same, or greater, fellowship that those of a religions background share.

Our members reject supernatural explanations such as ‘god’, ‘angels’, ‘the devil’ for phenomena that can be explained through the use of the scientific method. As a result, we do not believe in souls, witchcraft, magic, reincarnation, or karmic justice.

Our members have arrived these (dis)beliefs through applying logic and the scientific method to observations. Our diversity comes in the paths we used to arrive at these conclusions about the universe.  Our group includes a large number of scientists and engineers as well as members who have used their natural intelligence to “figure things out!”

Self-identified atheism is a merit badge of mental rigor and courage. It is difficult to disagree (and disagree vocally) against overwhelming societal pressure. We applaud those who are willing to stand up to their parents, friends, teachers, religious fanatics, and political leaders. Atheists risk ostracism, careers, friends, and even their safety on a daily basis because we have found that a belief in the supernatural is a detriment to society.

Our purpose is to bring the rational word to the ignorant masses. We battle the fictional character that is god as it influences everyone’s life through government mandates, schools, and science. Religion is a tool used to control the masses to their detriment. Our fight is with those leaders who use religion for their own benefit and aggrandizement. Our weapons are science and knowledge, ridicule and obnoxiousness.
