Spiritual Humanism is a religion based on Reason, compassion and truth.

To strive to be a global family is the highest spiritual practice we can do for each other on the local level. We seek to nurture an informed 'faith' in non-violently resolving conflict, nurturing friendship with all of the natural order, resolving by thought and action to transform strife into co-operation, poverty into well being, and injustice into social equity.

What we seek is truth. Truth is a force, as Mohandas Gandhi would promote. The truth force (satyagraha) can be a core teaching and practice for us and a common ground for living. A second core teaching is ahimsa, or pledging to do 'no harm'. A third core teaching is the sarvodaya or constructive program. Providing the means to reconstruct society through truth, equity and self sufficiency.

- The inherent 'sacredness' of all living things.
- The highest evolutionary stage of humanity includes understanding, compassion and non-violence.
- We must reject war and violence as the means of resolving conflict.
- There are rundamentary human rights to be abided by as spelled out in the U.N. Declaration of Human Rights and other documents, and which can be promoted in each national and local community.
- We can embrace reason and logic while cultivating intuition and passion as natural parts of being human.
- We must reject religious intolerance, racism, violence of all forms, sexism, homophobia, classism and all manner of economic injustice and oppression.
