Institute for the Secularisation of Islamic Society

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


The Institute for the Secularisation of Islamic Society (ISIS) is an organization of writers that promotes the ideas of secularism, democracy and human rights within Islamic society.[1][2][3] It is part of the Center for Inquiry.

Founded in 1998 by former Muslims, the best known being Ibn Warraq,[4] the group aims to combat theologically driven fanaticism, violence and terrorism. The organization does not promote any belief system or religious dogma but rather it subscribes to the rule of secular law, freedom of speech and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
