WHAT WE BELIEVE
* We hold that reason, evidence and the scientific method are the best basis of belief. We reject dogma.
* We assert that human beings can lead good, happy, functional lives without religion, superstition, or supernaturalism. We are good people, just not "God people".
* We believe that the goal of morality and ethics is to reduce suffering and enhance well-being.
* Our conviction is that free inquiry, good will, tolerance, and freedom are essential for the attainment of the greater good of humanity.
