NAC welcomes support from all of those who share its general objectives and goals, without concern for agreement on each and every aim. Our Trustees, Honorary Associates, Advisers and Supporters, our most important source of moral leadership and intellectual support, do not therefore necessarily endorse every position advocated by NAC, but endorse what we are doing in our efforts to examine religion, belief and morality, oppose fundamentalism and extremism, and defeat the abuse of religion - not only the abuse of individual rights by religious authorities but also the abuse of religion by secular officials in promoting their own political agendas.
