What we’re about
Humanism is a non-theistic world view. Humanists are interested in human rights, the separation of church and state, and making the world a better place for everyone. We look to science, reason, and empathy to guide us in looking for solutions to problems in our lives and in the world.
Some of the goals of our group:
- to create a supportive community for humanists in CNY
- to put our values into action by helping the local community through volunteering and community service
- to educate people about humanism and other non-theistic worldviews

Book Discussion: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Location not specified yetDon't Panic!
Join the Central New York Humanist Association for a book discussion of Douglas Adams' hilarious novel, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy! With all the terrible things happening in the world right now, let's read a lighthearted tale of how the Earth gets destroyed to make way for a galactic freeway ... don't forget your towel!
Reading the book is not a requirement of attending the book discussion, though with all the absurdist humor packed into the book, you may at least want to watch the movie ;) If you're more of an audiobook fan, the audiobook is expertly read by fellow humanist, Stephen Fry!
Did you know Douglas Adams was a fellow humanist? You can read about that here.
