About Me

Humanists working to do good. Working with others.
The 'O' in the O Project is what you are left with when you take 'god' out of 'good'.
In other words, it's about how you can live a good life without following a religion (but not about 'converting' people to atheism). Whether you are an atheist, agnostic, humanist or call yourself some other name, this project seeks to dispel negative images people might have about you as being in some way amoral. It has two goals:
1. To champion the contributions that humanists and other non believers make to wider society in the fields of social justice, equality and human rights.
2. To promote good relations and cooperation between believers and non believers
You can visit the O Project website . It includes a regularly updated mediawatch section, quotes, suggestions of things you can do and some high profile examples of atheists who have made contributions to social justice.
You can also join the O Project group on Facebook .

Apologies if I don't get round to thanking you for: being part of the project. Every bit of interest and support is really appreciated. I will always reply to messages though.
Do you support the aims of the O Project?
