Rationalist Press Association

The Rationalist Press Association, founded in 1899, was an organization that promoted secular, scientific, and humanist ideas through publishing books, pamphlets, and periodicals. It aimed to challenge religious dogma and advance rational thinking and skepticism. By supporting and distributing works that emphasized reason, evidence, and scientific inquiry, it fostered a community of individuals committed to intellectual independence and secular values. The association played a significant role in the spread of rationalist and free-thinking viewpoints in society during the 20th century.
