Corvallis Secular Society

Corvallis Secular Society is a non-profit tax-exempt educational organization dedicated to promoting Secular Humanism and to serving the intellectual, political, and social needs of its members. Secular Humanism is an ethic and life-stance without traditional, theistic religion, and is free from any belief in the supernatural and paranormal.
