Happy Hanukkah!

For all those celebrating Hanukkah, we hope your days and nights are filled with warmth, light, and time spent with friends and family.

The Society for Humanistic Judaism has information about Hanukkah and offers Humanistic Ideals for Hanukkah Candle Lighting and a contemporary reading of the symbolism behind each candle, The Eight Lights of Hanukkah.

Freethought Quotes

  • “In the absence of fear there is little faith.”
    by Michael Palin
  • “Humanists don't simply disbelieve religious explanations; rather, we find that such explanations don't stand up to reasonable scientific scrutiny. When supernatural claims of transcendence such as assertions of rebirth or divine intervention are confronted with with scientific review, it's not only clear that the evidence doesn't support them, but that including such religiously rooted ideas in our understanding of the world requires living with severe cognitive dissonance or undoing much of what we've learned about how the world actually works.”
    by Roy Speckhardt
    Creating Change Through Humanism
  • “Our beliefs affect our behavior towards others. And that makes our beliefs, not just a personal question, but an ethical one.”
