Human Nature

 
     "Humanism is a philosophy focused upon human means for comprehending reality.  Humanists make no claims to possess or have access to transcendent knowledge." What is Humanism Frederick Edwards
     "Humanism believes in a naturalistic metaphysics or attitude toward the universe that considers all form of the supernatural as myth, and that regards Nature as the totality of being as a constantly changing system of matter and energy which exists independently of any mind or consciousness." A Definition of Humanism Corliss Lamont
