When Humanists Attack!!!

by The Humanist Being

A show for secular, spiritual, and other humanists. Your co-hosts talk to fabulous humans working toward humanist goals like social justice, critical thinking, humor, communication skills, etc. Some are recovering from a religious upbringing. Some believe in a deity--and are open to respectful inquiry about where our beliefs come from. Topics range widely but our guests always present eye-opening observations!
