Is Humanism A Religion in Disguise: A discussion with Humanist Stephen Law - Part 1

What if meaning, morality, and truth can exist—without God?

In this episode of Uncommon Sense in Current Times, I sit down with Dr. Stephen Law, British philosopher and author, to discuss his views on the core principles of humanism: living a meaningful life without religion, applying reason and science and embracing moral responsibility rooted in human flourishing.

From political secularism to morality without divine command, Dr. Law offers his explanation of humanism as both a worldview and a practical guide for navigating life in a divided age.

If you’ve ever asked:

“How can we ground morality without God?”

This conversation is an opportunity to hear from an expert on this topic and learn how to relate and share your faith with those who identify as humanists.
