    the primary issue i have is with "rationality" being the be-all end-all. i am not religious, i don't subscribe to "magical" thinking, and i see myself as a very critical thinker. as such, i always find it interesting how so many humanists and atheists treat rationality (and Science) like a religion. as if everything in the universe needs to be broken down and described in an equation; shoehorned into whatever is accepted as "science" at the time. things like intuition, common sense, contextual observation, inherent biases, etc, seem to be ignored or dismissed. the fact that new scientific discoveries frequently contradict the currently accepted "laws of science" doesn't seem to stop folks from dogmatically referring to those "laws" as infallible. what i have asked my humanist friends: what is the "formula" for a tree?

      If people are free to do what they want, there should be no such issue with them breaking down everything and making an equation out of it. Especially if it doesn't harm anyone. Well maybe it harms egos and beliefs. In my opinion, every living things main goal is survival. Whatever people have to do and or believe in that makes them a better person and helps but not hurt humanity, is a step towards survival. From religion, science, philosophy, society, etc. If it helps you, I'm for it. But, if people use those things to harm one another or any life, then I'm not for it. Just do what you need to do and believe what you need to believe if it helps you. Personally like Albert Camus, I chose to face the absurd. It should be that simple. Spending our days figuring out if we're religious or atheist, or humanists, or this or that is a waste of time. Just learn as much as you can about everything, until its all over.

I think you simply are humanist by practicing not joining. Maybe I'm a bit too anarchistic on this one but it feels like you wanna make an economic hierarchical system out of it wich I can't agree with. Cause it's not about the money, Organisation n sht. Humanism should be autonomous because of the responsibility you carry with yourself. At the end you use a well made video about humanism as an advertisement for your "company". And they way you made it is like a Christian advertisement.

      I think you've missed the point. Humanism is a movement towards critical thinking and reasoned analysis of our world and personal values. The whole purpose of videos like this and the movement as a whole is to get the idea out there into the world. Humans like labels. Many people have been Humanists all their lives without that label and that's fine; but many people not exposed to these ideas need to know there is an alternative out there than what they've been conditioned to believe without the benefit of reasoned self-analysis.

      "...and not so recent figures like Marx, Hittler, Stalin, Mao..." None of those people were humanists. They never identified as humanists, and their actions directly contradicted several core aspects of humanist ideology (equal rights for all, democracy over dictatorship, valuing the lives of others, etc.). Also, Hitler was not only deeply religious, he actively HATED non-religious people. Literally his first two decisions as head of the Nazi party were a) signing a treaty of support with the Catholic Church and b) banning and dismantling the Free Thinkers League, Germany's national atheist organisation. And quotes from Hitler expressing his disgust for atheists are well documented. Clearly, you have a lot to learn about what humanism actually is. Maybe try watching this video again.

      Language changes over time. Nowadays when people say "humanist" they are usually referring to a secular humanist. Or if referring to values they mean values that are from a non-supernatural source ("secular"). Humanism was originally about an interest in reading and writing...it was a movement of letters and intellectual critique. That usage went by the wayside a while ago, but that's probably what you are thinking of when you identify those religious humanists like Thomas More.

      As a Humanist the choice of others to be religious is respected, only so long as those religious beliefs are kept personal, practised in private and are not part of a larger religious organisation, such as the Catholic Church; however these beliefs are not held "sacred". Humanists believe that religious organisations are harmful to individuals, societies, rational thought, and the future of humanity as a whole. So while I respect your right to practice religious beliefs in the privacy of your own home, I will fight against your church/synagogue/mosque/coven as long as it is an established organisation that has any influence over individuals or society.

    Mr. Norman Dodd, former director of the Congressional Committee, identified the source of some of these trends (Socialist, Liberal trends) when he testified before the Illinois Joint Legislative Committee on Regional Government, in 1978. He testified about the trustees of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace who realized that "... they must control education in this country. So they approach[ed] the Rockefeller Foundation with the suggestion that the task be divided between the two of them. The Carnegie Endowment takes on that aspect of education that has a tinge of international significance and the Rockefeller Foundation takes on that portion of education which is domestic in this relationship." Congressman Eugene Cox confirmed Mr. Dodd's conclusions when he testified: "The Rockefeller Foundation's funds have been used to finance individuals and organizations whose business it has been to get communism into the private and public schools of this country. "But the planners faced an immense problem. The American public was not ready to accept the introduction of communism into the school systems of the nation. The plan was to change the name, but not the basic philosophy, so that the American people would allow it to be taught in their schools. The new name of the communist philospophy became Secular Humanism. Secular is defined by the dictionary as being: "of or relating to worldly things as distinguished from things relating to church and religion; worldly." Humanism has been defined by the American Humanist Association as: "the belief that man shapes his own destiny. It is a constructive philospohy, a non-theistic religion, a way of life." Notice that Humanism, according to its own publications, is also a religion, a new way of living in and looking at the world. Karl Marx was one of the first to link the philosophy of Communism with the philosophy of Humanism, when he said: "Communism as a fully developed naturalism is Humanism. "And again: "Humanism is the denial of God, and the total affirmation of man. Humanism is nothing else but Marxism."And in 1970, the New Program of the Communist Party, U.S.A., stated that: "Marxism is not only rational, it is humanist in the best and most profound meaning of the term."

    Actually, humanism means that you believe Jesus was human. This does not deny Jesus' divine nature, but it merely prescribes that humanity has a divine spark and that Jesus, as a human, perfectly captured that spark, by sacreficing himself. He did so guided by God, which is the psychological projection of the human will to survive, thrive, make wonders and connect all conciousness. Jesus could've called for civil war like Barrabas. But instead he chose crucefixion, so that all might see Jesus suffer, imprint the cross on their minds, and harm eachother no more, as we are filled with regret, and fear that Adonai will have revenge for His Son, but we are forgiven by the Lord, because of our brash, lowly nature, being descended from apes, 'we cannot have nice things'. Also the story of Adam and Eve and Sons is more about monogamy than anything else. 'Eating fruit of the forbidden tree' is chiefly a reference to adultery. Once you realize Jesus was human, you realize the potential in humanity itself. When humans aspire to co-create with eachother and with the Creator, when humans take responsability for their potential position, the divine spark will be a light that drives out all ignorance. Jesus was born in the Age of Fishes. Now it is the Age of The Man Who Carries Water. Incidently, since the beginning of Aquarius' age, men have begun to politically 'carry water' for women' rights. The issue of literally carrying water being gendered is in dispute, and now sometimes the man will carry water from the well, because she can or will not. She has always carried the water, but now he is less and less ashamed to carry water for her, and reaping the rewards of a more equitable society. Humans need fair play in order to thrive. Religious people refuse to see divinity in humanity, saying we are too fallen to enter Divine domain. Well, certainly with that attitude, humanists say. The most important thing in the world is the human man, because it connects with the the eternal and divine. I look at the stars and I see my creator looking back at me, a male creator in a sea of female energy. Jesus 'carried water' for an adulteress, saying 'he who us sinless, cast the first stone'. I hope that we carry water for eachother evermore, in every sense.

      Atheists don’t have to believe that every human should be given the opportunity to prosper, or that we have social responsibilities. Atheists just lack a belief in a god, that’s it.

      @@lampshademuncher5316 so the main difference is the lack of social responsibilities; Would it be correct to assume that the atheist doesn't believe in Morality since there is a lack of social responsibility? And would only view that (social responsibility) as something that the species has internally for group preservation? I apologize for the many questions I would just like to get someone's point of view that believes in atheism.

      @@studentsofthescrolls771 It’s not that all atheists don’t believe in being moral, it’s just that it’s not necessary to be moral to be an atheist. All humanists are atheists, but not all atheists are humanists. Humanism requires someone to believe in social responsibility and to be an atheist, whilst atheism only requires a lack of a belief in a god. If someone says that they are an atheist, the only thing you can know about them is that they lack a belief in god, nothing else.

      @@lampshademuncher5316 Thanks for the information, so in a recap to be an atheist one can accept morality or deny it; those that deny it, deny any and all objective morality leaving them in a State in which social responsibility is unnecessary. Which do you hold too if i may ask? And (last question) if one chooses to deny morality, then i would suppose that leaves the individual without right to claim he or she has been done wrong in the event something in-morale that has been done to their person? Seems as if the atheist loses in denying mortality, unless there is something i em missing in my analysis?

      @@studentsofthescrolls771 I personally believe that all morality is subjective, including religious morality. I also believe in attempting to maximize wellbeing and taking on social responsibilities. I don’t think that you have to be religious to be moral. I don’t think anyone can truly determine whether or not something is objectively right or wrong, but I do use those words to describe certain things based on my personal opinion.
