In the fifth session of our series on what Ethicalists can learn from other groups, Humanist Chaplain Beth K. Lamont will discuss her values and beliefs, and those of the movement to which she belongs. As she has written, “…As an individual, I have the power to raise my own voice in protest. I value Life; I love my own Family, and the larger family of Humankind. I revere the Human Species, and believe in the right to peaceful pursuit of individual and societal happiness. I pledge to support the ideals of a Culture of Peace, and will encourage others to do likewise.”
Lamont is a leader with the Humanist Society of Metropolitan New York, a chapter of the American Humanist Association, which meets currently at the NY Society for Ethical Culture. She is also president of the Half-Moon Foundation, which was founded by her late husband, Corliss Lamont, president emeritus of the American Humanist Association, and author of The Philosophy of Humanism, among other works.
