There is really no debate here because most Atheists are Humanists and most Humanists are Atheists. So, we will celebrate together like good godless heathens and indulge in the wisdom of Humanism and how Atheism came to some of the same conclusions hundreds of years ago. However, atheism did not progress much past the realization that there is no god, and religion is totally absurd. Humanism has a much richer history, born out of culture, scientific discoveries and enlightened thinking.
Humanism will help lead us into the future as religion becomes irrelevant, and can even help solve tough political problems. Atheism is a component of Humanism.
Ralph Hughes is on the JH Board of Directors and was a speaker at the American Humanist Association national conference last May in Las Vegas.
We will meet in the Mills Building behind JUC around the east side of the parking lot.
