SUMMARY:"Sin - An Ethical\, Moral\, Religious and Practical Perspective" by Andy Reed
DESCRIPTION:“Sin – An Ethical\, Moral\, Religious and Practical Perspective” will be presented by Andy Reed at the Sunday\, February 15\, 2026\, meeting of the Ethical Humanist Society of Asheville\, 2:30 – 4:00 pm at 227 Edgewood Rd\, Asheville\, NC. Andy will be with us in-person for his presentation and Q&A. There will also be a hybrid Zoom option. All are welcome to attend. \nGrowing up a Unitarian in the Bible Belt (here in Asheville)\, Andy Reed was exposed to the concept and supposed repercussions of sin from an early age. He has spent a lifetime figuring out how to incorporate various ethical\, moral\, religious\, and practical views of sin into his own belief system … and behavior. But in Ethical Humanism\, there’s no god to judge us\, no savior to redeem us\, and no hellish eternity awaiting us for punishment. \nThis Sunday\, he’ll ask you\, our fellow Ethical Humanists and friends\, to jointly address these questions: What does “sin” mean? How do we recognize it in ourselves? How do we “repent\,” or “atone\,” or “redeem” ourselves from its impacts on our lives? And should we even bother? \nAndy Reed is an Asheville native\, writer\, editor\, actor\, and community advocate whose work has spanned publishing\, theater\, marketing\, and social activism. A graduate of Columbia University where he majored in English literature\, Andy began his publishing career editing outreach materials for nonprofit organizations before moving into advertising and marketing with NBC Television. After returning to Asheville\, he became deeply engaged in the region’s creative and civic life — acting and directing in regional theater\, editing numerous books\, and founding Pisgah Press to publish works that illuminate the human condition. He currently serves as copy editor for The Urban News and has edited more than a dozen books across fiction and nonfiction. \nAndy is a member of both the Ethical Humanist Society of Asheville and the Black Mountain Unitarian Universalist congregation. He is an advocate for LGBTQ inclusion and civil rights\, works to build bridges across communities and generations and brings to his endeavors a lifelong exploration of ethics\, language\, identity\, and belonging. \n
