This page provides links to various pages presenting a Progressive Secularist Nurturant view of what could be called "Secular Morality" when morality is defined as in a common dictionary. Click on any link to view that certain page while you're online.

Let this page be your guide to an understanding of natural morality as one secular person portrays it, and to an understanding of why those who say without a god to impose rules no morality is possible are so completely wrong. Secular morality, you will learn, is far superior in many ways to religiously imposed constraints upon natural impulses. In fact, unguided by natural rules, a far higher per-capita number of religious persons commit crimes of all kinds than do atheists, who have no god-guide and only their own sense of personal responsibility. So, go ahead, be brave, follow the links on this page to their farthest reaches, and see if you aren't left to wonder what religion really does have to offer for all the time and money people spend on it, when you could have a better quality of life as a better person for free.

"To deny a right to the experience of pleasure is immoral unless that denial can be justified by a valid presentation of how pain will result from that experience in an amount that would render the expected pleasure regrettable; or, if it can be shown that pain will be induced in others innocent of any involvement. The role of science in moral issues should be to test that, predict that, and find harmless ways to demonstrate that."
