Or do you use your own humanism and ignore the injunctions to wreak havoc and cruelty on innocent peoples in scripture? Just as our other fellow humans have ignored their own humanism (dehumanising their victims) and sought justification in scripture, personal experience, dialogue with dieties etc and have reasoned that their destructive actions are indeed what god wants. Their experience is no less valid, but I say there is no truth, reality or proof in theirs, yours or my own experience.
