I am a Humanist. Kurt Vonnegut wrote that "...being a Humanist means trying to behave decently without expectation of rewards or punishment after you are dead."

Humanism is nontheistic. I will not say that there is no God. Instead, I say that there is no proof for the existence of God, any gods, the supernatural or an afterlife.

Therefore, I take very seriously the idea that "No deity will save us; we must save ourselves." We are living the only life we'll have, in the only world we know about. The responsibility for the choices we make are ours and ours alone.

Are you a Humanist too?
