Mission Statement (beta)

Even though the site hasn't updated recently, it doesn't mean we've been slacking off! Some behind-the-scenes stuff has been going on, and I'm very excited about where we're going in the next few months. A joint HDP and Austin Skeptical Society project is in the works, and we're working on networking with other groups on more long-term projects.

In the meantime, here's out the beta version of the HDP mission statement:

The Human Decency Project was founded in 2009 in order to promote opportunities for atheists, secularists, non-theists and all others to perform much needed community services through non-religious organizations, to foster a sense of community amongst individuals without religion, to offer perspectives on the state of the religious conflict, religious freedoms, secular initiatives, and civil rights programs throughout the United States and the world, and to advance a positive image of non-believers amidst a climate of intolerance and misinformation. Furthermore, we are committed to advancing a positive stance on ethics and the human condition - one that stands strong against religious attack, and that is based on solid philosophical, rational, and pragmatic foundations.
