West Valley Secular Humanists
|
Humanists, atheists, Brights, freethinkers... As secularists, we celebrate the virtues of rational thought, morality derived from reason and human compassion, and an outlook free of deities and supernatural forces. Yet as a group, we are often accused of failing to fully address people's emotional, societal, and spiritual needs. Can the humanist philosophy fulfill these needs? How can secularists make our life-stance more available and acceptable to people? Can we or should we have the types of community that exist in the religious world?

Every great building has a strong foundation. Read more
