AFTERNOON TALK: GODLESS SPIRITUALITY, A HUMANISTIC DISCOURSE

NSW HUMANISTS MEETUP'S AFTERNOON TALK: 3-5PM SUNDAY 9 NOVEMBER 2025 WILL BE "GODLESS SPIRITUALITY, A HUMANISTIC DISCOURSE" HELD AT HUMANIST HOUSE IN CHIPPENDALE.

The speaker will be Murray Love, drawing on a variety of relevant sources in a topic which often invites controversy, so seems suitable as the last talk for 2025.

The talk will touch on what words like 'spiritual' can mean in earth-based discourse among those disavowing the supernatural while yet honouring curiosity, imagination, discovery, the 'examined life', psychology, tranquillity, mindfulness, mental health, the arts and sciences, authenticity, love, morality and so much more.

The views of invited speakers are not necessarily held by the HSNSW.
The HSNSW encourages honest, open conversations held in a respectful manner.

ABOUT HUMANISM
Humanism is a flexible, open-minded life philosophy where we explore our common humanity in an awesome world without theism (religion) and other supernatural beliefs. There is no dogma but a shared reality and an appreciation of basic human values like compassion, reason, and fairness. Humanism can be seen in the best aspects of the modern Enlightenment - secularism, science, social democracy, human rights, and human flourishing. We have a concern for the biosphere, and a delight in the world as it is - and as it could be. Our discussions respect reason, respect one another, and reject all dogmatic thinking.
