What is Humanism

What is Humanism

Many people are humanist or follow a humanist lifestance without knowing it. They believe that everyone should be allowed to live in accordance with their own beliefs, subject only to them not interfering with other people’s rights. In this section, you can learn more about both aspects of humanism: humanism as a lifestance and humanism as a vision for society.
