Ep 456 A Day of Reason in Minnesota

Atheism is Non-Partisan


Minnesota Atheists recently hosted a candidate forum for those
running for Governor, US Senate, US House of Representatives,
Secretary of State, and Attorney General. We invited all
candidates to answer the following question at the forum, either
themselves or an official campaign representative authorized to
speak on their behalf:

"How will your personal views on religion be separated from how
you administer our secular government?"

Our opening speaker was Evan Stewart, a doctoral candidate in the
department of sociology at the University of Minnesota. His
dissertation work examines the political impact of the growing
non-religious population in the United States.


We wanted to test the draw of the secular voter that has been on
the rise in the past number of years.  We encourage
candidates from across the political spectrum to attend, as
atheism is non-partisan, from the most liberal of liberal to the
most conservative of conservative...atheism is not tied to any
political ideology.
