Alive Mind Partners with the Military Association of Atheists and Freethinkers on "The Atheism Tapes" DVD to Support Specialist Jeremy Hall and His Constitutional Rights

New York, NY, May 23, 2008 --(PR.com)-- In honor of Memorial Day, and in support of Specialist Jeremy Hall who earlier this month made national headlines by filing suit in federal court against the U.S. Army, Alive Mind has partnered with the Military Association of Atheists and Freethinkers to support Specialist Hall’s case and the constitutional right of soldiers for freedom from religion. Alive Mind is offering a 20% discount on The Atheism Tapes DVD, featuring Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett, Colin McGinn and others, and will donate $3 from each purchase to the MAAF.

The Atheism Tapes is a ground-breaking DVD series of expanded interviews from the PBS broadcast A Brief History of Disbelief. Required viewing for anyone interested in the issue of faith vs. reason in today’s society, the series features six leading men of letters and science: biologist and New York Times best-selling author Richard Dawkins, philosophers Daniel Dennett and Colin McGinn, distinguished playwright Arthur Miller, theologian Denys Turner and Nobel Prize winning physicist Steven Weinberg. “The Atheism Tapes is an intimate visit with top thinkers that humanity will cherish for generations. We are honored to have the support," says Jason Trophy, president of the MAAF.

An article in the New York Times last month brought national attention the intolerance in the U.S. armed services of soldiers who do not subscribe to traditional belief systems. Specialist Jeremy Hall, a member of the Military Association of Atheists and Freethinkers (MAAF), was sent home last November after being threatened by other soldiers for his secular views. He has filed suit in federal court alleging that his right to act according to his conscience was violated. Purchase The Atheism Tapes from Alive Mind this month and support Jeremy Hall’s constitutional right and the MAAF. To receive a special Memorial Day 20% discount and donate to the MAAF please visit www.alivemindmedia.com and enter special coupon code: ATMAAF20 during check-out.
