Editors' note: This post follows Greta Christina's earlier guest post on TBP, Being an Atheist in the Queer Community. Greta blogs at gretachristina.com.
So what do atheists want from their allies?
And how can progressive non-atheist people and groups be good allies with the atheist movement?
The other day, I about how difficult I was finding it to be an out atheist in the LGBT community. Since I don't like to gripe for the sake of griping without offering any solutions, today I'm offering my suggestions for what atheists want: my prescription for how progressive believers can, if they want, be supportive of atheists, and allies with the atheist movement.
