Summary
This Halloween weekend, Bill O'Reilly is "mad at God!," and a Texas high-school is mad at FFRF. The "Nones" are growing even faster, according to Scientific American. We announce FFRF's new "Unabashed" and "Out of the Closet" virtual billboards. After hearing the first-ever "Atheist Town Hall," moderated by Cara Santa Maria, we listen to New York Times op-ed columnist Michelle Goldberg describe the scary rise of "Christian nationalism" during the Trump era.
