Understanding Nonbelievers


"Understanding Nonbelievers" is a free public showing of a video explaining misconceptions about nontheists. It will be shown Tuesday, June 19, from 6:30 until 7:45 at Edmondson Pike Public Library, 5501 Edmondson Pike in Nashville. Discussion will follow. It is sponsored by Nashville Chapter Americans United for Separation of Church and State. Information: (615) 646-9946.

This is a 40-minute DVD produced by the Colorado Coalition of Reason and sent to 16,000 schools for social science classes where students normally see presentations about major religions but not about nonbelievers and their viewpoint.

This video is not antireligious in any sense except that it explains the beliefs of many people who are not theists. In one segment the speaker is asked if she would eliminate the world's religions if she had the power, and she answers "no" and explains why.
