The Humanist Life Stance
Being good: Humanists are concerned about the 'good life' - a life of integrity, using the concepts ethics and compassion. They seek personal happiness and fulfillment as well as the welfare of humankind, and the protection of the natural environment including biodiversity and ecosystems.
Without God: Humanists typically describe themselves as skeptics, agnostics, or non-theists . To find answers to problems, they look to reason and science rather than religious creeds or sacred texts.
"Humanists are guided by reason and scientific inquiry, inspired by music and art, and motivated by ethics, compassion, and fairness." from Greg M. Epstein in Good without God (2005)
