Not at all, actually

I'm sure he does. But I'm not speaking to Sam Harris: I'm speaking to you. I've never let someone else speak for me while I still can speak

It seems to be something it is not then. It turns out none of what you listed was remotely understandable... it is only kind of me to ask for clarification when I could have ignored it for being psychobabble

Quote:If You wish to read the longform for the tenets from the council for secular humanism they are available on the earlier links
Fact is I don't wish to read longform of anything that isn't interesting. I could dismantle the whole philosophy for it's apparently all expansive and 'obvious' notions alone... why would I find even more to be interesting at all?

I could supplant my own understandings of those words for you if you wish... but as Cinjin Cain consistently tells me: I cannot defend someone's morality due to my own deeply depraved understanding of it

Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
