From Diversity and Reason, Unity
We are an American political party, uniquely formed as a true, constitutional movement, reaching out to all who seek a secular government as outlined in the First Amendment to our United States Constitution. Our mission: To politically represent U.S. atheists and all who are drawn to our mandate, in a political process that has thus far marginalized and ignored one of the largest and growing segments of the U.S. population.
The National Atheist Party is a Constitutional Party dedicated to the preservation of the Founding Father’s vision of a secular nation. We are a progressive secular political movement whose current incarnation is as a non-profit 527 political organization. As we grow and evolve, we intend and expect to develop into a full-fledged political party. We are assembled for two important reasons: to give a political voice to U.S. atheists, who have never enjoyed political representation before; and to stand athwart those elements and groups that would seek to undermine the secular foundations of this great country.
The National Atheist Party is open to people of all races, sexes and sexual orientations, and cultures. We are committed to a government free of superstition and bias and are guided by principles of equal opportunity, recognition of merit, and economic responsibility. The National Atheist Party does not seek to inhibit the religious practices or beliefs of any group, but is committed to the idea that religious preference is a private matter and has no place inthe government or workplace. We support the separation of church and state, and seek to ensure its strictest interpretation.
The National Atheist Party is a non-profit, 527 political organization devoted to issue advocacy. Although not currently advocating any single candidate, we are evolving into a candidate-endorsing entity. In order to do so, we will need thousands of supporters in each state to achieve this goal. If you want to see this become a reality sooner rather than later, volunteer for a leadership role in your state’s chapter, see if you qualify for one of the current openings, or donate any amount you can spare.
