About me: RISE is a freethinkers club dedicated to humanism, a nonreligious philosophy based on reason and compassion, and secularism, the assertion that the government and all public institutions should exist separately from religion or religious belief.
RISE hopes to create an open forum for students to talk about their beliefs or non-beliefs, in a respectful and civil manner. We also want to demonstrate that rejecting religious dogma does not entail immorality nor disloyalty to the United States of America.
RISE embraces human compassion, social progress, the beauty of humanity (art, music, and literature), personal happiness, pleasure, joy, love, the advancement of knowledge and equal rights for ALL humans. We want to address the issues of sexism, homophobia, intolerance, respect for our environment, scientific advancements, and politics and the impact that religion has on these issues.
RISE hopes that through campus and community activities, educational programs and services to bring about a culture in which scientific morality, free inquiry, secularism and human-based ethics flourish.
Whether you consider yourself an atheist, agnostic, deist, unitarian, rationalist, secularist, humanist, or freethinker, ALL are welcome to join in the conversation!
You are Jean-Paul Sartre. You could also be called a humanist, because you believe that humanity has the power to change their condition at any time; no one is born a coward, they only choose to be one. You also like open relationships that are far from monogamous, and you possibily have a lazy eye.
