I have just come across this on an old [ circa 2010 ] Atheist site in reply to a discussion about Atheism and Humanism - a comparison .

Why would anyone expect religion to be mentioned at a Humanist conference? Humanism is about positive philosophies and ideas, not religion.
That is why I tend to call myself a humanist. Calling myself an atheist defines me only in terms of religion, (rejection of it). It is an essentially negative label. I prefer to be positive.

What do you think of this view ?
