Secular Humanism affirms
the inherent dignity and worth of every human being, and asserts that persons
are responsible for the realization of their aspirations and that they have
within themselves the power of achieving them. Secular Humanism is free from
any belief in the supernatural and is dedicated to the search for meaning and
values on this earth through reliance on intelligence and the scientific
method, democracy and social sympathy. Secular Humanism contends that human
beings are part of nature, that they have emerged as a result of continuous
evolutionary process and that all their values - religious, ethical,
political and social - have their source in human experience and are the
product of their culture. |
