“Until we can show that the nonreligious care just as much about improving the world as the religious do, we’ve got no business saying that ‘religion poisons everything.’ We’ve got to shift our priorities and start focusing on how Humanism can make a positive contribution to the world. Otherwise, we give people no compelling reason to believe us when we say that we are ‘good without God.’ “

Excerpt from Chris Stedman’s, “The Humanist Obligation to Serve: Being “Good without God” Requires Action”, reflecting on American Grace.
