Humanism is a philosophical stance that emphasizes the value and agency of human species, both individually and collectively. The meaning of the term humanism has fluctuated according to the successive intellectual movements which have identified with it. Generally, however, humanism refers to a perspective that affirms some notion of human freedom and progress. It views humanity as responsible for the promotion and development of individuals, espouses the equal and inherent dignity of all human beings, and emphasizes a concern for humans in relation to the world. In practice, humanist philosophy advocates for the equal treatment of all people, regardless of their race, ethnic background, sex, gender, religion, or nationality.

Variants

Pan-Humanism

Pan-humanism is the concept of an affiliation with the humankind through some sort of legislative structure that allows all technological and economic development to be for the benefit of the people. This co-insides with the idea of a world government, which would serve as a common political authority for all humanity, such as the idea of world federalism.

Secular Humanism

Secular Humanism begins with atheism (absence of belief in a deity) and agnosticism or skepticism (epistemological caution that rejects the transcendent as such due to a lack of evidence). Because no transcendent power will save us, secular humanists maintain that humans must take responsibility for themselves. While atheism is a necessary condition for secular humanism, it is not a sufficient one. Far from living in a moral vacuum, secular humanists “wish to encourage wherever possible the growth of moral awareness and the capacity for free choice and an understanding of the consequences thereof.”


Secular humanism emerges, then, as a comprehensive nonreligious life stance that incorporates a naturalistic philosophy, a cosmic outlook rooted in science, and a consequentialist ethical system.[3]

Religious Humanism

Religious Humanism is a form of humanism that applies humanistic ethical philosophies on religious principles rather than secular principles. Religious humanism is sometimes referred to as non-theistic religion or congregational humanism. Other theistic humanist traditions have arisen over time, such as Christian humanism.

Humanistic Capitalism

Humanistic Capitalism is a concept that seeks to unite humanism, specifically the safety and health needs of people and the environment, with market forces and a market-based economy. It is often seen as a middle ground between the ideas of modern capitalism and democratic socialism.

File:Eco-Hum.png Eco-Humanism

Eco-Humanism is a version of humanism that advocates for environmental ethics. Andrew Brennan was an advocate of ecologic humanism (eco-humanism), the argument that all ontological entities, animate and inanimate, can be given ethical worth purely on the basis that they exist.

History

TBA

Principles

  • Egalitarianism: All people come from the same place and need to be treated with fairness and equality. Humanists must actively uphold these standards and seek to help their fellow man.
  • Individualism: Humanism supports Individualist beliefs, believing that humans themselves are responible for creating freedom. Humanits advocate the Liberty and self-rights of the individual.
  • Secularism: Humanism has always proven itself to be a (usually) secular ideology every time. In fact that is a natural component within. Humanism believes that scientific knowledge and evidence in the real world matters more over the simple belief in "supernatural entities".
  • Welfare: Humanism is moral; morality is a way of humans improving our lives. Humanists engage in practical action to improve personal and social conditions, that through welfare. In fact, many liberal and welfare ideologies justify this principle upon adapting it to their own policies.

Relations

Friends

  • Pan-Humanism - Unite humanity!
  • Universal Monarchism - Best kind of monarchy! For the God-Emperor of all mankind!
  • Democracy - The majority of humans have the entire power over an individual. Based!
  • Laicism - The truth of humanity must come from reality itself. Science, self-thinking, and evidence matter more than religion.
  • Athenian Democracy - "About the gods, I am able to know neither that they exist nor that they do not exist nor of what kind they are in form: for many things prevent me from knowing this, its obscurity and the brevity of man's life".
  • Alter-Globalization - My based friend wants people to maintain their identity whilst being united with the world.
  • Progressivism - You carry my ideas well!
  • Social Liberalism - Love you too babe! <3
  • Socialism with a Human Face - One of the most based socialists! Also nice human face. Wish I had one too.
  • Reformist Marxism - A Marxist who still gets me.
  • Social Capitalism - A capitalist who still gets me.
  • Social Democracy - Another, a more moderate leftist who still gets me.
  • Cosmopolitanism - We should all be putting aside our differences for the betterment of humanity.
  • Transhumanism - Humanity must be improved.
  • Welfarism - Every human, regardless of their background, deserves to have their basic needs covered.

Frenemies

  • Marxism - Originally embraced me, but now he calls me bourgeoisie. And many of your followers violate human rights.
  • State Atheism - I said no religion above others, not all religions should be completely eradicated. Also, the level of pride you have in not being religious is eerily religion-esque tbh.
  • Environmentalism - Hmm... Should I care for the environment?
