What is Humanism?

Humanism is a rational philosophy informed by science, inspired by art, and motivated by compassion.

Affirming the dignity of each human being, it supports the maximization of individual liberty and opportunity consonant with social and planetary responsibility.

It advocates the extension of participatory democracy and the expansion of the open society, standing for human rights and social justice.

Free of supernaturalism, it recognizes human beings as a part of nature and holds that values--be they religious, ethical, social, or political--have their source in human experience and culture. 

Humanism thus derives the goals of life from human need and interest rather than from theological or ideological abstractions, and asserts that humanity must take responsibility for its own destiny.
-- The American Humanist Association

For several years, HAGP has sponsored a purely social gathering on second Saturdays. This is an excellent way to meet members, engage in some stimulating conversation with like-minded thinkers, and get a feel for our community.

NEW LOCATION! Starting May 14, 2011, the luncheon have been moved to the food court at the Willow Grove Park Mall. After much discussion, it was decided this would be better since members can order a wider variety of food and/or drink, eat immediately (or not order at all if there just for socializing) and therefore have more time for discussion. We hope this new location will bring in higher attendance and improve the quality of this important monthly event.
