How do humanists believe the world was created?

Humanists typically believe in scientific explanations for the creation of the world, such as the theory of evolution and the Big Bang theory. They focus on rational thinking and empirical evidence rather than religious or supernatural beliefs.


What does humanists think about creation?

Humanists typically believe in evolution as the scientific explanation for the diversity of life on Earth. They may view creation accounts in religious texts as symbolic or mythological rather than literal interpretations of how the world and living beings came into existence. Humanists often prioritize evidence-based knowledge and critical thinking in understanding the origins of life.


Who were the humanists and in what did they believe?

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.


Do Humanists go to a place of worship?

Not exactly. Since most humanists believe in ethics and in studying the wisdom of the greatest philosophers and scholars, rather than in a Bible or in a supernatural God, it would not be accurate to say they "worship." However, humanists often get together for programs, presentations, and conferences, as well as to work together on issues that they believe will better the society. Humanists also participate in organizations, such as the American Humanist Association or the Society for Secular Humanism. And while they may not go to a church or a temple (although some Unitarians are also Humanists, and some Jews are too), they do keep in touch with like-minded members (they even have their own magazines); and they also have their own unique ceremonies to reinforce the cohesion of their group. I enclose a link to the American Humanist Association, so you can learn more about what humanists believe.
