Future of Faith in America: Humanism

The most recent Pew Survey triggered a great deal of conversation around the rise of the non-religious. Humanists, atheists, and secularists find much to hope for in the survey results and the growing trend away from belief in the supernatural. Nevertheless, there is still work to be done, they argue, and while there is much to build on, there is still much to overcome politically and culturally.

This topic is part of our summer symposium on the Future of Faith in America. For more resources visit our Future of Faith main page.
