| All About The Heathen Hangout |
The Heathen Hangout is a community for non-theists, which offers a positive social setting as well as support where possible, and an intellectually stimulating atmosphere without being snobbish. It has a set of forums, including both private and public forums, a gallery, a chatroom, and several other facilities for members, such as our Writers' Lodge subforums where members can share their writings for others' comments.
Our mission statement
The Heathen Hangout exists to provide:
 |
a place to have fun and fellowship.
|
 |
a safe haven for non-theists, one without interruption from preaching or flames from theists or any anti-humanists at all.
|
 |
a genuinely humanist, ethically-based community alternative to the usual debate sites dominated by extremists and flames.
|
 |
an area in which people can learn in a nice atmosphere, and a supportive base from which people can both exercise a secular humanist influence on the society around them, and also exercise a sensible moderate humanism, in place of the overwrought extremism that so often dominates atheist sites, for example. |
|
It is neither demanded nor expected of the members of the HH that they should share all these goals, however a condition of membership is not violating the rules of the HH; the rules can be read in full through this link.
