Most Humanists are familiar with the experience of explaining Humanism to someone who responds, "I guess I'm Humanist and didn't know it!" Yet, have you asked yourself how a worldview so hard won by freethinkers over centuries has become liberal common sense?

Humanism is a unicorn that, upon closer inspection, might be better described as...well, you decide.

In these sessions, we will be looking closely at some under-appreciated alleyways that have led to today's Humanist worldview.

Session One: Introduction to Humanism and Its Historical Roots

Session Two: The Secular/Congregational Divide in Humanism

Session Three: Humanism as a Solution to Contemporary Challenges

Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of Humanism as a philosophical framework, it historical development, and its potential to address contemporary challenges. Attendees will also have opportunities to engage in discussion and reflection on the implications of Humanist principles for their own lives and for society as a whole. Humanism is a unicorn, but it exists.
David Breeden was the Senior Minister of the First Unitarian Society of Minneapolis (2013-2024) -- a congregational humanist community dedicated to promoting a free search for truth, meaning, and justice. He holds an MFA degree from The Iowa's Writers' Workshop, a Ph.D. from the Center for Writers at the University of Southern Mississippi, and a Master of Divinity from Meadville Lombard Theological School. Prior to leading at First Unitarian, Breeden was the first settled minister at the Minnesota Valley Unitarian Universalist Fellowship in Bloomington, MN.
