First Non-theist In Congress

12 March 2007


According to the Secular Coalition for America, Pete Stark (D-Ca), pictured left, is the first open non-theist in Congress. Good for you, Pete.

Update: It turns out that he identifies as a Unitarian. I thought that Unitarians were just theists who reject the idea of the trinity. It turns out that the term also includes non-theists.

Finally! Congratulations, Mr. Stark. 534 presumed theists and 1 brave nontheist. Will the next nontheistic Member(s) of Congress please make themselves known now?
