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

  • “But it’s not enough to just “discover” the meaning of life. What really matters is whether we live according to our values, and that takes hard work and a hundred hard choices every day.”
    by Greg M. Epstein
    Good without God: What a Billion Nonreligious People Do Believe
  • “Why should we postpone our joy to another world? Let us get all we can of the good between the cradle and the grave, all that we can of the truly dramatic. If, when death comes, that is the end, we have at least made the best of this life.”
    by Robert Green Ingersoll
  • “There's absolutely no justification for preparing to move human civilization off the Earth and to Mars and into space colonies, and in my opinion it is irresponsible to put this specter before us and present it as a reasonable, realistic response to the mess we have created here on Earth. ”
    by Carolyn Porco, planetary scientist
