49. Atheists are isolated in this society
Look, we atheists don't have any major organizations. Nothing approaching the level of Christianity. In our society we tend to be isolated. We don't have the extended families that churches provide. So we have a thin social net to catch our fall when bad things happen. So some try to form groups of like minded individuals to partake in activities to provide in addition a source of contact for one another. People like knowing they are not alone. And that was one of the express reasons for his creating the club.

We don't want the Christians to be disrupted. We just want our rights to be respected. We want the right to assemble. We want to right of free thought and speech. Its not too hard to figure out.
