National Secular Society

The National Secular Society (NSS) is a UK-based organization that advocates for the separation of religion and government. It promotes equal treatment for all, regardless of religious belief or non-belief, and opposes religious influence in public institutions like schools and laws. The NSS aims to ensure that public policies are based on reason and evidence rather than religious doctrine, fostering a society where freedoms of thought, conscience, and belief are protected for everyone. It also campaigns against discrimination linked to religion and for secular education and healthcare.
