Secular Humanist Manifesto

The Secular Humanist Manifesto is a statement that articulates the beliefs of secular humanists, emphasizing human reason, ethics, and science as guides for life, rather than religious doctrines. It advocates for a society based on human rights, freedom, social justice, and the pursuit of knowledge, encouraging individuals to find meaning through personal responsibility and shared human values. The manifesto promotes a worldview that respects scientific understanding and rejects supernatural explanations, aiming to create a more humane and rational approach to addressing societal challenges without reliance on religious authorities.
