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

  • “It will be generally found that those who sneer habitually at human nature and affect to despise it are among its worst and least pleasant examples.”
    by Charles Dickens
    The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby
  • “The great religious ages were notable for their indifference to human rights ... not only for acquiescence in poverty, inequality, exploitation and oppression, but also for enthusiastic justifications for slavery, persecution, abandonment of small children, torture, and genocide.... Moreover, religion enshrined hierarchy, authority, and inequality.... It was the age of equality that brought about the disappearance of such religious appurtenances as the auto-da-fe and burning at the stake. ”
    by Arthur Schlesinger Jr.
  • “The more I study religions, the more I am convinced that man never worshipped anything but himself.”
    by Richard Burton
