The statements were printed in the ‘Humanist Dipper’, a British Humanist Association pamphlet. The publication was designed to educate people about humanism and the humanist tradition. At the time (c.1975) the Association were working to improve understanding of humanism not simply as a term for agnostics/atheists but as a positive attitude to life centred on human experience, thoughts and hope.
