Huffington Post article on Atheism by Zoltan Istvan / The Transhumanist Wager

There's almost a billion nonreligious people in the world. Many are transhumanists and don't even know it yet. With their support and energy, we can eliminate disease, death, ignorance, and many other problems on this planet. My latest article for The Huffington Post: "I'm an Atheist, Therefore I'm a Transhumanist"
