I am a humanist because…

I am a #HumanistBecause I put human beings and other living things at the centre of my moral outlook, and see the world as a natural place, illuminated by science, reason and human spirituality. The term “atheism” describes an absence of belief in god/s, while humanism describes positively held beliefs on morality, human rights, and the power of humanity to make real, lasting changes for a better society.

Humanists UK have been running a tweeting campaign with the hashtag #HumanistBecause; now, I don’t use the platform formerly known as Twitter, nor Facebook (because I don’t think they are an especially good thing for so many reasons) but I did think this was a good campaign. For what it’s worth, I thought I would post a link here: #HumanistBecause.

I generally dislike labels. But I am happy to call myself a #HumanistBecause humans are wonderful, fun & creative, & we do best when we consciously take responsibility for ourselves, those around us & our planet. Compassion, empathy & flexibility are our most powerful tools.

I'm a #HumanistBecause I see the world as a natural place, with no supernatural side, and believe that we can live ethical and fulfilling lives by using logic, reason, and evidence to guide us in one life we know we have.

I’m a #HumanistBecause defending our human rights has never been more important, and I support an inclusive and secular society that does not give privilege to one belief group over another.
