Everybody is welcome to participate as long as they uphold our Humanist tradition of treating opposing opinions with respect.

Mike Lynott of Hastings Humanists, said: “Our intension is to hold a debate on this contentious issue in which we will avoid tribal politics and personal attacks, and examine the issues. Hopefully shedding a little light and dissipating some of the heat by squarely facing up to the fact that this have wide ramifications for many years to come.”
