Secularism

Humanism and Secularism share much common ground.

Stephen Fry narrates four animated videos about humanism

As Freethinkers we can't be dogmatic in our definition of Secularism. Something along these lines has been proposed:

Leicester Secular Society welcomes as members anyone (in Leicestershire or beyond) who:

  • believes in practical humanity (the need for us to help each other);
  • advocates free speech and the need to keep religion and the state apart;
  • enjoys rational argument based on reality and the company of free thinking people;
  • supports an open society based on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (opens in a new window).

What do you think? Come along and discuss it with members in our friendly hall, or read some of the pages below
