About me:

Humanism is a progressive philosophy of life that, without theism and other supernatural beliefs, affirms our ability and responsibility to lead ethical lives of personal fulfillment that aspire to the greater good of humanity.

The mission of the American Humanist Association is to to be a clear, democratic voice for Humanism in the United States, to increase public awareness and acceptance of Humanism, to establish, protect and promote the position of Humanists in our society, and to develop and advance Humanist thought and action.

We are accomplishing this through our network of over 120 local groups, our continued presence in the news media, our various publications -- including the award winning Humanist magazine -- and our lobbying and coalition work in Washington D.C.

Projects of the American Humanist Association include the Appignani Humanist Legal Center, the Kochhar Humanist Education Center and the Humanist Society.

Who I'd like to meet:

humanists, secular humanists, religious humanists, atheists, agnostics, skeptics, transhumanists, progressives, supporters of church-state separation, pro-choicers and any other freethinkers out there!

    Hello, do you want to chat about life extension? There is a ton of exciting stuff going on and getting set to go on. I think this cause will be on the worlds mainstream by the end of the year, two at the most. Theres a new good place forming to view the chat from, its here: longecity. com

    That page is still developing, it needs a better theme and stuff, but its got the chat and life extension tv on it.

    My religion consists of a humble admiration
    of the illimitable superior Spirit which reveals itself
    in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind.
    (Albert Einstein)

    i saw a news bit about your christmas campaign. it isn't amazing to me anymore how often the general population misconstrues even the most mundane point of such an awesome gesture. it's all context and people make of it what they will in order to feed religious superiority.

    thank you very much for a candid look at december's biggest holiday.

    and thank you for adding me :D

    AMERICA IS ADDICTED TO OIL!

    Unimaginable human suffering and mass animal extinction from Global Warming... A national security nightmare brought on by Dependence On Foreign Oil... A Peak Oil crisis threatening economic collapse

    You choose the reason... the time to ACT is NOW!

    Ok, that was pretty dramatic... ha. After you change your undies, check out my bulletins and blogs for more good stuff. We can fix this thing...

    THANKS FOR THE ADD!
