Wilmington Faith & Values

Contributors » Han Hills

Han Hills relishes the chance to talk about his reasoned unbelief and how to be ethical without religious influences. He also loves answering any audience questions about atheist/humanist issues.

Hills is the past president of the Humanists and Freethinkers of Cape Fear and is heavily active in a number of regional and national Humanist organizations, projects and initiatives.

Raised in a fully secular British family, Hills now proudly calls the Carolinas his home. A lifelong atheist, he aspires to embrace life in the only world we will have and take action each day to leave it better than we find it. Hills has an interview podcast show about atheism in our area and nationwide at Cape Reason. In the pauses between promoting understanding of the Humanist way of living, Hills is a student of history, film, philosophy and the wonderful people he is lucky to have around him.
