Miscellany from today’s Humanist Network News:

Is Humanism a Religion?

Humanism, at least in any of the groups that I have joined — The Humanist Association of Canada (HAC) and the Society of Ontario Freethinkers (SOFREE) — does not require any oath or initiation ritual outside of filling in a contact information form and a check. If that qualifies humanism as a religion then I also belong to the Church of the Credit Union, The Holy Order of the Curling Club and The Divine Path of Too Many Credit Cards.

Oooh. The Divine Path of Too Many Credit Cards *snort*. That one is entirely too familiar — though not currently, and I plan to never rejoin that one again.
