Johann Jakob Friedrich "Fritz" Schütz (born 14 April 1833 in Walldorf near Heidelberg; died 22 April 1888 in New Ulm, Minnesota) was a German American preacher and writer, and a proponent of rational atheism. He studied natural sciences, philology, and philosophy at the University of Heidelberg in the 1850s, later he switched completely to philology to become a teacher. From 1861 to 1866 he worked as a teacher in Schwetzingen until he came into conflict with the authorities and quit. He was then a preacher of the Freie Gemeinde in Apolda, Thuringia; published the Freethinker journal, Menschenthum, 1869.

In 1871, after the founding of the German Empire, Schütz emigrated to America, first to Philadelphia, where he was a teacher and speaker at various Freie Gemeinden; then to Milwaukee, Wisconsin (1873); and later to first Carver, Minnesota, and then to New Ulm, where he joined the Turner community and edited the freethinker periodical Rundschau.
