Who else do you know that is atheist/agnostic? What is their career/profession? Were there any polititions that are nonreligious? Did they do any good things to help others.
I know there are variations among the atheist/agnostic/nonreligious people. But are there nice ones that you can look up to and be proud of them for doing good things. I think there's this one guy uh Penn I think but he's kind of vulgar and we should step up and show people that were not all bad.

Well there's Adam Carolla who's very open about his atheistic believes, then there's Penn and Teller, Family Guy's creator Seth MacFarlane, Bill Maher and Natalie Portman.
As to what they did or do for humanity? I don't know. I really don't follow celebrity gossip.

That depends on who you ask. He often mentioned god in his works, but also stated the unlikeliness of god. I think it was Dawkins who suggested that Einstein used god as a metaphor for the majesty of the universe. Honestly though, I'm not too concerned. There are lots of people who use quotes to put him on one side or the other, but unless we can ask him ourselves, it's all just speculation. neutral

I think the safest standpoint is "he was a complicated man." xd

Wait, what? Do you mean "Would Disney ban you if they found out you were Atheist? Or do you mean "Would this guild ban you if you were on Disney?" Cause probably both. Just kidding. I'm not sure if Disney is still the ardent Christian company they once were, but I'm sure they'd ask you to keep quiet about it.

Oh yeah, isn't Harry Potter Atheist, the actor I mean?
