→Lawrence Krauss Humanist of the Year in 2015 and his statement on incest
[[Secular humanism]] is [[humanism]] that is atheistic in nature. It is a philosophy which holds that human beings are the most important figures, and that social problems are best solved without the involvement of religious doctrine. People who are secular humanists purport to focus on ways to better themselves and human beings as a whole. The American HumanIST Association's motto on the the main page of their website is "good without a God".<ref>[http://americanhumanist.org/ American Humanist Association website]</ref>
