I’m Susan, and I’m a Humanist Celebrant. I am not religious.
Were you ever religious? Yes, I was raised in the Lutheran Church and joined the Presbyterian Church as an adult. They were fine places to be. My children and best friend challenged my beliefs several years ago, and I was sad to discover that what I believed without question didn’t hold up to my questions.
What’s a Humanist Celebrant? Humanist Celebrant is a person who ascribes to the belief that based on science, reason, and some good critical thinking, religion and a supreme being doesn’t fit into the story, but people’s stories still need to be celebrated and told.
