This definitely holds true in becoming a better person. Examine yourself, and your surroundings, keeping ourselves good.

Happy Friday! Lets go into the weekend making good choices 😜

Congrats UK humanists!

The UK government confirmed in October 2025 that it would legally recognise humanist marriages in England and Wales as part of a wholesale review of marriage law, and announced it would consult on proposals in 2026 before introducing legislation. The commitment ends — in principle — a decades-long legal absurdity: humanist weddings are already legally recognised in Scotland, Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and many other countries, but in England and Wales couples who want a humanist ceremony have been required to hold a separate civil ceremony to make the marriage legally valid. Humanists UK — which trains and accredits celebrants and conducts around 1,500 ceremonies a year — described the commitment as long overdue.

The consultation, expected in late 2026, will determine the regulatory framework — whether humanist celebrants will be authorised similarly to religious ministers, or through a new registration system. Humanists UK has called for a simple, proportionate framework that recognises the celebrant's role without imposing bureaucratic requirements incompatible with humanist practice. The legislation itself will not arrive until parliamentary time allows — a phrase that in Westminster has historically meant years rather than months. England and Wales will join the rest of the English-speaking world in recognising that a wedding led by a humanist celebrant, before family and friends, is as legally meaningful as one conducted in a church.
