Freethought Quotes

  • “How we define “better” is critical to understanding the philosophy of Humanism. Humanists judge outcomes using a compassion-based morality and we are totally unapologetic about that. If it helps humans, it is a good outcome. If it hurts, it is bad. Absent from our thinking and reasoning is anything that could be considered supernatural or religious.”
    by Jennifer Hancock
    Jen Hancock's Handy Humanism Handbook
  • “When I became convinced that the Universe is natural - that all the ghosts and gods are myths, there entered into my brain, into my soul, into every drop of my blood, the sense, the feeling, of the joy of freedom. The walls of my prison crumbled and fell, the dungeon was flooded with light and all the bolts, and bars, and manacles became dust.”
    by Robert Green Ingersoll
  • “Morality is not synonymous with religiosity. Morality should be based on how our actions affect others. Our creeds should not be more important than our deeds.”
