Ethical Humanist Society of Asheville

Living an ethical, responsible & joyful life
  • Ethical Core Values
    I accept responsibility for my choices and actions. I strive to live my values. I view ethics as my religion.
  • Ethical Core Values
    I can learn from the past to build for the future. I am free to question. I am free to choose what I believe.
  • Deed Before Creed
    Each of us has a moral responsibility to help reduce suffering, enhance the quality of life and contribute to the well being of society.
  • Examining the issues of living
    Moral education – learning to be a good person – is a lifelong task. We encourage personal growth through sensitivity to others, critical thinking and developing the courage to act on ethical values.

    I am a part of this earth; I cherish it and all life upon it. I learn from the world around me by using my senses, mind and feelings.
