### Join us at the Secular Assembly - Darwin Day edition! Humanists celebrate Darwin Day to honour curiosity, evidence, and the scientific spirit that helps us better understand our world. We’re excited to welcome Dr John back as he revisits Darwin with a fascinating talk that separates myth from historical reality. In an age of fake news and AI-generated content, learning how stories are shaped, distorted, and believed has never been more important—for all of us. Secular Assembly by Humanist Society Singapore is a monthly gathering of humanists, freethinkers, atheists, agnostics and other like-minded people.This month's Assembly is held in collaboration with Harmony in Diversity Gallery (HDG). Before the Assembly, there will be a optional 45mins tour of HDG. Registration is required, please register at eventbrite linked in here: [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/humanistsg-the-darwin-wallace-story-from-history-to-pop-science-mythology-tickets-1980802752354](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/humanistsg-the-darwin-wallace-story-from-history-to-pop-science-mythology-tickets-1980802752354) ## Featured talk - The evolution of the Darwin-Wallace story: from history to pop science mythology **Speaker**: Dr John van Wyhe (Historian of Science, Senior Lecturer at the National University of Singapore, and Director of Darwin Online [https://darwin-online.org.uk/](https://darwin-online.org.uk/ "https://darwin-online.org.uk/")) The story of Darwin and Wallace is often told as a tale of injustice, where Wallace was overshadowed by the more famous Darwin. However, this popular version only emerged in the late 20th century and is not supported by historical evidence. Recent research shows that the original account, accepted for over a century, was accurate and that Wallace was not treated unfairly. The myth persists because stories of overlooked outsiders resonate strongly with modern audiences. This reminds us how easily history can be reshaped to fit the values and emotions of different generations. #### Assembly brief There will be: short sing alongs, a talk/sharing, community sharing of personal stories and experiences, moments for reflection and gratitude, and more. \*\*Collaboration with Harmony in Diversity Gallery (HDG)\*\*The Harmony in Diversity Gallery (HDG) was developed by the Ministry of Home Affairs in collaboration with community partners and organisations like the Inter-Religious Organisation (IRO). The Gallery aims to promote an appreciation of Singapore’s rich religious diversity. It hopes this will foster a spirit of give and take, mutual respect and understanding, necessary to nurture and strengthen the religious peace and harmony we enjoy today.

This is a wonderful hiking area located in the heart of the Johor rainforest. These 2 lagoons of Seri Alam offer stunning scenery, dense jungles and birdlife galore. **Lots of spots to capture Instagram-worthy spots along the trail, including panoramic vistas of the quarries**. You won’t want to miss the chance to explore an abandoned granite quarry in Johor, which offers an eerily beautiful post-apocalyptic setting for photographs. Venture a bit further, and a gorgeous blue/green lake reveals itself within this mini canyon. Hiking to the Seri Alam Blue and Green Lake is worth considering for several compelling reasons: 🌊 1. **Unique Twin Lakes (Blue & Green)** * The Blue Lake has a surreal turquoise colour due to mineral deposits. * The Green Lake contrasts with a deep emerald tone. Both are former quarry sites transformed into scenic lakes — a rare natural phenomenon. 🥾 2. **Beginner-Friendly Hike** The hike is relatively manageable, making it accessible to beginners and families. However, proper hiking footwear is still recommended. 🏞️ 3. **Beautiful Nature and Photo Ops** Surrounded by lush forest, the area offers great panoramic views. Ideal for photography, especially during early mornings or golden hour. Wildlife and flora are abundant — great for nature lovers. 🚫 4. **Off-the-Beaten-Path** Not overly commercialised or crowded like the more famous Malaysian trails. A quiet escape into nature just outside Johor Bahru. ⚠️ 5. **A Bit of Adventure** Some trails may involve minor climbs or navigating slightly overgrown paths.

Join us as we get together to see SIRAT, an Oscar-nominated Best International Film from Spain that follows a father, accompanied by his son, goes looking for his missing daughter in North Africa. Here’s a description, trailer and our plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: A father, accompanied by his son arrive at a rave deep in the mountains of southern Morocco while searching for his daughter who vanished months ago at one of these endless, sleepless parties. As their search continues, the journey forces them to confront their own limits. The film is directed by Oliver Laxe and stars Sergi Lopez, Bruno Nunez Arjona and Richard Bellamy. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ww-IXHXvS70 BUZZ & ACCLAIM: SIRAT has already won numerous awards, including 4 at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, along with the Chicago, Montclair and Toronto International Film Festivals! It also earned a whopping 11 nominations at the 40th Goya Awards, including Best Film and Director, and was nominated for Best International Feature Film and Best Sound at this year’s Academy Awards. The film is earning a stellar 92% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes which calls it “an unforgettable exercise in tension” and “a brutal reminder that the journey can be more important than the destination.” PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing and will confirm/announce details as the date gets closer. Once showtime is confirmed, advance purchase (via GFC website preferred) is advised! Once you have your ticket, please list your seat number in the Comments section of this event.

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Our March speakers are Molly Gaines and Zack Parrish, co-organizers of the Secular Education Association: They will share their story of how a small group of Ohio parents grew into a national organization tracking released-time religious instruction and other church–state issues in public schools. The presentation will cover SEA’s early wins and hard lessons, what we’re seeing nationally right now, and how local advocates can play a meaningful role in protecting public education. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of the landscape — and practical ways to get involved. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.
