What exactly is Humanism?

An Introduction to Humanism on DVD by Jennifer HancockWhat is Humanism?

The question of exactly what Humanism, for some reason, is very contentious. Some think that Humanism is a non-theistic religion, like the American Ethical Union.  The American Humanist Association and the Council for Secular Humanism think that Humanism is a philosophy. To the Unitarian Universalists Humanism is simply one of the traditions they draw on for wisdom. Internationally and at the United Nations Humanism is considered to be an ethical life stance, meaning that it is the functional equivalent of a religion without being a religion. Confused yet? You’re not alone.

On being happy

Humanist Thought of the Week: 7 27 2010

On being happy   

Nothing is more annoying then someone who is dark and brooding just so they can prove how intellectually deep they are.

They aren’t. They are just annoying.

Humanist Column

Jen Hancocks Humanist ColumnMy First Column!

I am now a freelance columnist for the Bradenton Herald and I write a monthly column about Humanism for them. It replaces their regular Faith Matters feature once a month which is nice because Humanism is so rarely represented in our local papers. Anyway – here is a link to my first column. Feel free to leave a comment or recommend this column to others.

We are a Secular Nation

The US ConstitutionThe US is a Secular Democracy

Ok – so, if you weren’t aware of it, there a people who consider themselves to be Christian soldiers in America who are fighting a religious war against secularism.  Whenever you hear someone say – America is a Christian Nation and that our nation is under attack, you are listening to someone who either views themselves as a Christian warrior, or is influenced by this form of paranoid Christianity.
