My video entry for the Humanist Vision challenge contest.** 1st Place Winner!**

"Humanism is optimistic regarding human nature and confident in human reason and science as the best means of reaching the goal of human fulfillment in this world. Humanists affirm that humans are a product of the same evolutionary process that produced all other living organisms and that all ideas, knowledge, values, and social systems are based upon human experience. Humanists conclude that creative ability and personal responsibility are strongest when the mind is free from supernatural belief and operates in an atmosphere of freedom and democracy." - published in Free Mind, American Humanist Association.

  • It's real distrubing the insane ideas people get about wanting to think in a rational and reasonable manner. It's like people fear having to make difficult deccsions for themselves. Or maybe religion has just taught them to hate anything different.

  • Humanism is the best answer at this time to the divisions, delusional dogmas which prevent progression of the moral zeitgeist. It may come across as a fluffy bunny, unrealisitc, shallow attempt at a utopian society but what the hell have you got better philosophy?

  • When you stand before Jesus you will feel great sorrow when you remember making this video. Repent of your sins and turn to God. It is not too late.

  • @timbosforporn This is a simple use of vehicles that invoke a base sensation to receive a message. Neither would use Dethklok in an effort to relay a sense of feeling good. The lack of religion is reported to be an even stronger sense of awe than when living locked in a dogma of any sort.

  • What I find ironic is that humanist seem to claim they don't believe in religion yet their videos sound just as religious as all the christian ones. It plays all the harp music and soft melodies that are so soothing to us. It speaks of the same unity as every other christian does which convinces me that atheist are not immune from the religious tendancies of human nature. They just chose to identify God as the collective itself.

  • Your spiritual salvation come from your own inner reflection with your own conscience and not from your outer reflection with others

  • White men always try to show they are closer to God because of their white skin, yet they do the most to deny him.

  • From 1975 to 2000, America sent contraception and sex education to the third world, but they largely rejected it. There are many reasons for this. One reason is that many third world countries are male dominated, and they view children and women as a sources of wealth. They put kids to work, and even use them as soldiers. Given a long time and several planets worth of resources, we could probably use voluntary methods, i.e. do it your way. In view of these limitations, what would you do?

  • I don't think humanists are in denial about overpopulation. We understand that there is overpopulation. Being a humanist doesn't mean we want to end contraception.

    Quality over quantity. We'll all have a better life when overpopulation doesn't force anyone to starve. A humanistic way of ensuring that would be proper sex education and freedom of choice on contraception.

  • Study something about groups and psihology. people who are part of a group are harder to make fight each other. But is easyer to make them fightyng against another group.

    why? Because they don't know much about the other group. Is told that the other group is evil etc. so people who are good has wives and children home are fighting eachother. and UE is a globalization process. US is also. People will unite under one nation: Terra. And this is my opionion is a good think.

  • WTF?

    This is an answer? Are you actually claim that this would be the process?

    What basis do you have to believe this? Conspiration teories? You just describe the actual situation without mentioning the wars, conflicts and self nation interest.

    Who do you call for actual situation? A planet divided and manipulate to go to wars against itself? Divided groups (nations) will be easilly manipulated to start a conflict for the interest of robber barons" like it does now.
