<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The '''Rationalist Association''', formerly the '''Rationalist Press Association''', is an organisation of the [[United Kingdom]], founded on 26 May 1899 to promote what it calls [[freedom of thought]] and inquiry and the principles of [[rationalist movement|rationalism]], defined as 'the mental attitude which unreservedly accepts the supremacy of reason and aims at establishing a system of philosophy and ethics verifiable by experience and independent of all arbitrary assumptions or authority'.<br />
<br />
From 1929 until 1951, the R.P.A. published, through [[Watts & Co.]] the groundbreaking ''[[Thinker's Library]]'' series of books.<br />
<br />
The RPA publishes the bi-monthly [[New Humanist]] magazine.<br />
<br />
The RPA changed its name to the 'Rationalist Association' in 2002.<br />
<br />
In 2006, Sir [[Jonathan Miller]] was chosen to be its president. He said in response to being chosen, "Not believing in religion is very widespread but I think this community gets overlooked. I am flattered and honoured".<br />
