Humanist Students

Humanist Students is the student section of @humanists_uk. We exist to support and represent a growing membership of non-religious students at UK universities.

The Universities Tests Act, which ended religious discrimination in admissions and employment at the universities of Oxford, Cambridge, and Durham is 150 years old today.

About time.

The UK Government first promised to ban 'conversion therapy' in 2018, and then reiterated its promise in 2020. The ban on 'conversion therapy' is well overdue. This can't come soon enough. #BanConversionTherapy

This is happening THIS THURSDAY. Come help shape our thinking, or simply listen in on lots of clever people talk about things like how we can help people better understand vaccinations, and how we can bring communities together in such divisive times.

[Humanist Students @HumanistStudent]

It's important we know about things like this so we can do something about it. But it's uncomfortable and frustrating reading.

'Deafness to suffering has become the monster in the war machine... The assertion of dogma closes the mind & turns a nation, a civilization into a regiment of ghosts – obedient ghosts, or tortured ghosts.' Gripping words by Jacob Bronowski – scientist, broadcaster, & humanist.

[Humanist Students @HumanistStudent]

What should humanists' priorities be in 2021? How can we aid public understanding around vaccination? How can we foster communities in our divisive times?

Come join the conversation and make an impact 🎉

[Humanist Students @HumanistStudent]

We’re happy to announce #HumanistBecause, our new campaign! We're inviting humanists to use the hashtag to share the reasons why they call themselves humanists, the values that motivate them, & how these views positively impact their lives today.
