Show Notes

This episode is the first of a series from Humanist Canada’s own Steve Ghikadis. This series, brought to us by the Voice of Humanist Canada, focuses on prominent voices in the Canadian secular humanist community.

Today we feature Gretta Vosper. Gretta is an author, activist and ordained minister of the United Church of Canada, a member of Humanist Canada and a self-professed atheist. Her beliefs or lack thereof, caused controversy both within and outside of the United Church. In 2016, following a certain incident, her public statement that the belief in a supernatural God sometimes promoted hatred, led the United Church of Canada to institute an official review of her suitability as a minister. In 2018, Gretta was allowed to keep her position, but under sanctions by the United Church. Gretta is a much loved member of Humanist Canada.
