When Humanists Attack!!!
The Humanist Being
Frequency: 1 episode/37d. Total Eps: 37

Why should "secular humanism" be defined mostly by its opponents? Your three co-hosts talk to fabulous humans working toward humanist goals like social justice, critical thinking, exploiting the power of humor, and improving society by means of communication skills. Some are recovering from a religious upbringing; others exploring secular spirituality. Some believe in a deity--and are open to respectful inquiry about where our beliefs come from (i.e., our epistemology). Topics range widely but all guests present eye-opening observations!
