What is Humanism? |
| Humanism is an ethos, attitude or way of life centered on human interests or values, stressing an individual's dignity and worth and capacity for self-realization through reason and other human skills. It usually rejects supernaturalism, but some religious people consider themselves humanists. (from Humanism - Wikipedia,) |
