WELCOME
Justice without privilege
The members of the Lawyers’ Secular Society believe that law and the administration of justice should be based on equality, respect for human rights, and on objective evidence. No weight should be attached to religious doctrine or to belief in the supernatural.
The LSS was founded to provide advice and assistance to individuals affected by laws which give special advantages to those who assert religious beliefs. We seek to help people and organisations campaigning against religious privilege of all kinds.
