Humanist Community
Services of Northeast PA |
Our Goal is to provide support and community to Humanists, Agnostics, Atheists and Freethinkers in Northeastern Pennsylvania. We want to demonstrate the positive nature of atheism, and when necessary, engage in constructive activism.
Humanism is "a naturalistic philosophy that rejects all supernaturalism and relies primarily upon reason and science, democracy and human compassion." Corliss Lamont
"We live life day to day until the end of our days. We are not waiting for a reward at the end, our rewards are found in the special moments of each day we live. We believe life is a journey, not a destination. We believe in treating others with compassion, dignity, and respect because if we didn't we couldn't turn to a god to forgive us...we would have to be able to forgive ourselves, which is harder to do because it's not something we can pretend to do." Brenda
The Riddle
of
Epicurus
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?

**Disclaimer: We do not believe atheist groups should be registered as religious organizations. This defeats our educational purposes and gives religions the right to claim that humanism is the religion taught in public schools and they will demand equal time for their religion. Atheism is the absence of religion and therefore cannnot be defined as a religion.
