DESCRIPTION:This month Atheist Advocates of SF features a young atheist organizer who 
 is considered one of atheism’s most brilliant speakers, and that is why 
 we are flying him in from Columbus, Ohio to speak to you.\n \nJT Eberhard 
 is a full time organizer for the Secular Student Alliance and co-founder of 
 the Skepticon convention. “Coming Out Skeptical” addresses the need for 
 atheists to come out of the closet and to not merely focus on their 
 atheism, but on the human obligation to be reasonable. This talk has been 
 given to standing ovations at the American Atheists National Convention, 
 Dragon*Con, and elsewhere.\n \nEberhard will make arguments drawn from 
 history, philosophy, and current events for why a better world is dependent 
 on our ability to be candid with others about the reliability of their 
 beliefs, as well as our ability to be forthright about our own.\n \nEd 
 Buckner, the former president of American Atheists, described JT’s talk 
 at the Des Moines convention as “being present at the inauguration of a 
 new Atheist star.”\n \nOur own Greta Christina’s take on JT: “As a 
 writer, JT Eberhard is smart, funny, honest, and totally fearless. As an 
 organizer, he is passionate, dedicated, inspired, and as determined as a 
 bulldog. And as a speaker, he tears the roof off the sucker. We are 
 insanely lucky to have him on our side.”\n
