Former Christian pastor assumes leadership role for American Atheists

The new American Atheists Public Relations Director is a former Christian pastor.

Teresa MacBain began working for the organization on Monday, July 23, 2012.

For three years, MacBain was the minister at the Lake Jackson United Methodist Church in Tallahassee, Florida. She resigned from the church on March 30 and publicly came out as a non-believer at a conference sponsored by the American Atheists. "I was one of those crazy fundamentalists, right wingers, haters…that's the only word I can use for it," she said.

David Silverman, President of American Atheists stated, “We are pleased to have Teresa join us on staff at American Atheists. She began work filled with enthusiasm and new ideas for the public relations department. I believe Teresa’s prior work as a pastor will bring fresh ideas to our organization.”
