From Preacher to Atheist

After listening to the "Moment of Bedlam" at FFRF's annual Non-prayer breakfast, we hear the Newseum Institute's shout-out to the Freedom From Religion Foundation as a "well-organized" and "very effective" force fighting for the "nones" in today's society. We play the new song, "Life After You," then talk with the songwriter, Carter Warden, a former evangelical Church of Christ minister and founding member of The Clergy Project who came out as an atheist at FFRF's convention in Pittsburgh this month. Carter describes why he left the ministry and how difficult it was to find employment outside the church.
