[[File:Moscone, Jones and Mondale.jpg|left|300px|thumb|Mayor Moscone and the Rev. [[Jim Jones]] meet with VP candidate [[Walter Mondale]] during the 1976 presidential election.]]
Author [[Tim LaHaye]], in ''[[The Battle for the Mind, A Subtle Warfare]]'' recounts Mondale's [[Secular humanism|humanist]] background. Mondale was a contributor to ''The Humanist'' magazine and attended the 5th Congress of the International Humanist and Ethical Union held in August 1970 at the [[Massachusetts Institute of Technology]]. At that conference, then Senator Mondale said: "Although I have never formally joined a humanist society, I think I am a member by inheritance. My preacher father was a humanist ... and I grew up on a very rich diet of humanism from him. All of our family has been deeply influenced by this tradition including my brother Lester, a Unitarian minister ..." Indeed Robert Lester Mondale (1904-2003), Walter Mondale's older half-brother, was the only person to sign each of the three ''Humanist Manifesto''s in 1933, 1973, and 2003.<ref>[[Tim LaHaye]], ''[[The Battle for the Mind, A Subtle Warfare]],'' (Old Tappan, [[New Jersey]]: Power Books (Fleming H. Revell Company), 1980), p. 139.</ref>
