David Silverman (born August 13, 1966) is an American secular advocate.
Silverman previously served as president of American Atheists, a non-profit organization supporting the rights of atheists and the removal of expressions of religion in government, from 2010 to 2018.[1] His annual anti-Christmas billboard which calls Christmas "a myth" has often sparked controversy.[2][3] Silverman is also the subject of the popular Are You Serious (face)? internet meme.[4]
Silverman identifies as a firebrand atheist and defines firebrand atheism as vocally "attacking" humans' "silly" religious beliefs without attacking the individuals themselves.[5]
