What is Atheism and is it a Religion? Pam Johnson

Sermon Description:

Religion is defined as a structured system of beliefs, values and practices concerning the supernational, sacred or spiritual. Is Atheism a religion? Some say since it is “anti-theist” it is not a religion, but others say it can include a structured system of beliefs and values. Many atheists see themselves as humanists, so maybe that is their religion. Pam will explore different aspects of atheism and similar beliefs, and some atheist organizations.

Pam is the current Program Chair. She was raised UU in Meadville, Pennsylvania, and has also been a member of Nacogdoches UU Fellowship (now Timberland), First Jefferson UU in Fort Worth (now All Peoples), and Thoreau Woods UU Church in Huntsville (now closed). She is a clinical social worker winding down her private practice. She is married to James Johnson, and together they produce house concerts, are members of Galveston Ukulele Society, love to travel, and spending time with their three daughters and nine grandchildren.
