The Humanists and Freethinkers of Fairfield County (HFFC), Connecticut, seeks to promote Humanism and free thought in our community. Check out our website at [HFFCCT.org](https://hffcct.org).
Humanism is a progressive lifestance that, without supernaturalism, affirms our ability and responsibility to lead meaningful, ethical lives capable of adding to the greater good of humanity. Freethought is a philosophical viewpoint that holds that opinions should be formed on the basis of logic, reason, and empiricism, rather than authority, tradition, or dogma.
**Our bywords are Reason and Compassion.** We look for evidence as the basis of our beliefs about the world, and we embody compassion as our approach to others. We seek:
1\. To provide a forum for mutual and public education\,
2\. To promote critical thinking and the separation of government and religion\, and to stand up for humanist values as citizens\,
3\. To form a warm\, welcoming and supportive community of thoughtful people\.
We welcome all who wish to participate.
