| Σύνοψη: | This article provides a comparison of the New Atheism with German organized Humanism in terms of agendas and strategies. It draws on British and American as well as German discourses on the New Atheism and fieldwork on the Giordano Bruno Foundation (Giordano Bruno Stiftung) and the German Humanist Association (Humanistischer Verband Deutschlands). With reference to Johannes Quack's nonreligion approach, contextual differences are highlighted in order to explain heterogeneities between the New Atheism and organized Humanism in Germany. However, further differences between the two organizations show that context is not everything. The article concludes by raising the question of how these differences should be interpreted: in contrast to the widespread opinion that organized nonreligion is constituted of small competing splinter groups, it suggests that we may observe the development of an international or even transnational movement, which is heckling its religious opponents from different directions. |
