En este episodio continuamos con la explicación de por que a la etiqueta "ateos" agregamos el "apellido" humanistas seculares, el cual justifica en gran parte nuestro activismo y nuestro código ético y razón de existir como ONG
¿Qué es el Humanismo Secular? ¿Cuál es el sentido de la vida sin dios? ¿Qué diferencia al humanismo de la religión como guía moral? ¿Son los humanistas caritativos? ¿Podemos usar la evidencia científica para tomar decisiones morales? ¿Se puede ser humanista y religioso a la vez? ¿Podemos tener rituales sin creer en lo sobrenatural? ¿Cómo revertimos los prejuicios hacia los ateos? ¿Hay esperanza para la continuación del movimiento humanista en el mundo? Para discutir estos temas, conversamos con el historiador Jonathan Engel, doctor en Jurisprudencia y presidente de la Sociedad Secular Humanista de Nueva York.
We filed our first lawsuit in Puerto Rico, with the Humanistas Seculares as plaintiffs. FFRF attorney Sam Grover explains that the public schools in Puerto Rico have been forcing Christian prayer on all students. Then we talk with investigative journalist Nandini Archer about her Open Democracy expose, "Trump-linked religious 'extremists' target women with disinformation worldwide," proving that American anti-abortion evangelicals are funding dishonest Crisis Pregnancy Centers all over the world.
I had such a great time talking with Eva! Our interview has a different flow than most episodes, but it's a nice change of pace. We discuss a variety of topics: How people on the island are still recovering from hurricane Maria, politics in Puerto Rico and some awesome work being done by Secular Humanists of Puerto Rico. Additionally, she shares some exciting news about freethinkers in South America! There was a first ever conference and Dan Barker (you'll remember him from episode 001 of the podcast) was one of the featured speakers. We touch on Eva's path to Humanist Agnostic-Atheism about halfway through. Eva tells some great stories and has a great sense of humor. http://www.humanistaspr.org https://twitter.com/HumanistasPR @EvaSecularista
Este es posiblemente el episodio más problemático que he grabado y por buena razón. En un país mayormente religioso ser ateo es de por si un problema pero, Eva Quiñones, Presidente del grupo Humanistas Seculares vino a conversar junto a Gerardo Rivera, Presidente de la Organización Secular en el Recinto de Mayagüez de la Universidad de Puerto Rico, sobre la filósofa humanista, el pensamiento crítico, y defender los derechos civiles a través de la completa separación de Estado e Iglesia garantizados por nuestra Constitución.

What are the real origins of Thanksgiving? Stand-up comedian Leighann Lord shares with us her hilarious “Six Things to Argue About at Thanksgiving Other Than Politics.” Then Eva Quiñones, president of Humanistas Seculares de Puerto Rico, on the phone from Puerto Rico, tells us what it has been like since Hurricanes Irma and Maria battered the island, how atheists and humanists are delivering food, water, and emergency supplies to victims, and what freethinkers are doing there to keep state and church separate.
Gerardo Rivera is an atheist undergraduate student at the University of Puerto Rico at Mayagüez, where he pursues a B.A. in Chemistry. He is the founder and current President of Secular Humanist Association UPRM, a student group for young atheists, agnostics and all the secular community at the university. The group is the only one of its kind in all of Puerto Rico's public university system and it works closely with Humanistas Seculares de Puerto Rico, the leading secular organization on the island. Gerardo's activism focuses mostly in bringing attention to the increasing amount of violations to the Separation of Church and State in the island's government and guiding the development of more secular student groups in other Puerto Rico universities. He has a passion for science and philosophy, and believes deeply in equal rights for all under law.

We talk about FFRF's victory with the IRS, an agreement that they will begin to follow their own policy of enforcing restrictions on political activity by tax-exempt religious organizations and churches. We announce our newest lawsuit, filed with the ACLU and Americans United, against a Michigan city that is censoring atheist speech. Then we talk with David Pineda, President of "La Asociación Guatemalteca de Humanistas Seculares," an exciting new group of freethinkers in Guatemala.
