It's hard to understand how in one of the world's great secular democracies people can have difficulty owning up to the fact of being atheists, but here's one - Amanda Brown - talking like this:
It's time for us to all stand up, speak out and be counted... It is time for us to put up our videos and change the face of atheism. We want people to see we are normal people who have children and lives and do good in the community.
She's part of a 'We are atheism' campaign, aimed at encouraging atheists to come out, letting them know they aren't alone, and breaking down prejudice among non-atheists. Strength to them.
