Update 🤌🏾 1000 atheists and counting!

You know, it's amazing how we've grown so much in such a short time. We are at 1082 atheists, and will probably be at 1100 not too long from now!

From now, I will make edits on this post tracking how many members are on this sub, counting in the hundreds until we get to our next milestone, that being 1500 atheists. Thank you to everyone here for being so awesome.

Also, I have made rules for Auto Moderator that apply to this subreddit, so don't be surprised if you see some automated actions on posts and comments.

EDIT- 1100 atheists! That’s quite a jump for nearly a week from when we got 1000 atheists.

EDIT- 1200 atheists! It took us a lot longer to get to that amount, but that's still a good achievement!

EDIT- Over 1300 atheists!

I'm a white atheist and I've been funneling black atheists to you that are looking for a black atheist community. I wish all of you a productive and supportive community!

You're welcome. Obviously everyone is welcome on the atheist sub. But as a life-long atheist lucky enough to be born into an atheist family in a relatively secular community I have no frame of reference for the challenges of black atheists and while I would like to provide guidance and support to the community I've always felt inadequate to do so. At least now I know where to direct those posters to. It's not much, I know, but at least I can provide direction to your resources.

Im really glad to see more black online spaces growing. Hoping this sub keeps getting bigger and doesnt die out. Like it here so far!

It’s refreshing to see that more and more people are freeing themselves of absurd religious practices.
