A free copy of "The Young Atheist's Handbook" has been sent to every secondary school in England and Wales by the British Humanist Association (BHA), the Christian Today website reports today (May 2, 2014).
Subtitled "Lessons for Living a Good Life without God," the guidebook tells the true-life story of Bangladesh-born Alom Shaha, a science teacher who was brought up as a Muslim in southeast London.
He rejected Islam in favor of atheism following the early death of his mother, and wrote a book detailing his journey to encourage others who are searching to find meaning apart from religion.
The Young Atheist Handbook for Schools campaign was launched by science teacher and blogger Ian Horsewell, who wanted to offer every UK student the opportunity to consider and explore their own belief system in more detail.
