We believe that humans are responsible for our own thoughts and actions. No super being is necessary for human beings to realize that doing good is better than going evil. No god necessary to forgive us for our mistakes and love us even when we do wrong.
Mature human beings must take responsibility for themselves. We cannot hide behind a god who made them sinners from birth. We cannot get a 'do over' by praying for forgiveness. We only have this one life and should use our time wisely to help others and leave behind a world better than when we entered it.
They believe in this. people's duty is to promote human welfare.
Humanists believe in the importance of protecting the environment for current and future generations. They advocate for sustainable practices and recognize the interconnectedness of all life on Earth. They emphasize the need for responsible stewardship of the environment to ensure a healthier and more sustainable planet.
They have to reason it out.
Humanists do not have religious beliefs, but believe that people should be generally nice to each other and help each other out.Some Humanists believe that religion can be damaging, and the British Humanist Society organised the recent "Atheist Bus" adverts which have made headlines worldwide with the slogan: "There's probably no god. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life". The word "Probably" was included to conform to advertising standards in the UK.This summary from the British Humanist Association website explains it wuite well:"Humanism is an approach to life based on humanity and reason - humanists recognise that moral values are properly founded on human nature and experience alone and that the ams of morality should be human welfare, happiness and fulfillment. Our decisions are based on the available evidence and our assessment of the outcomes of our actions, not on any dogma or sacred text...."Humanists believe that we have only one life, it is our responsibility to make it a good life, and to live it to the full"
A:Secular humanists do not believe in God. They reject religious dogma, supernaturalism, pseudoscience or superstition as the basis of morality and decision-making, but embrace human reason, ethics, and social justice.
• Humanists have no religious beliefs. They use reason, experience and human values to guide their thinking. • Humanists realise that death is inevitable and they don't believe in life after death. • A humanist funeral allows family and friends of the deceased person to remember them and say goodbye. • Many Humanists will believe that they have a moral duty to donate their organs after death if they can help someone else. This will be seen as an individual decision
humanists believe that they have to make it a better world now, here on earth and that we should be kind and not make war on each other, life is too short for that.
no god and no one
Humanists were scholars and writers during the Renaissance period who believed in the value and potential of human beings. They focused on human interests, abilities, and achievements rather than on divine or supernatural factors. Humanists emphasized the importance of classical learning, individualism, and the study of the humanities such as literature, philosophy, and history.
Humanists do not adhere to the belief in a specific god or higher power. Humanism is focused on human reason, ethics, and values, and emphasizes critical thinking and empathy rather than religious beliefs.
I would think the humanists do not pray, in a conventional religious sense, since they do not believe in a deity.
Humanists believe in emphasizing human potential, ethics, reason, and critical thinking in shaping individuals and societies. They prioritize human welfare and happiness, embrace secular values, and promote a naturalistic worldview that focuses on the here and now rather than the supernatural or afterlife.
