Ask a Secular Humanist!

You can be a believer but apply yourself as if humans can solve their own problems. Not all humanists are atheists.

And you can understand "darkness" and "light" with the Atheistic viewpoint as a parable, same with shades of grey.

Of course, but I do not assert shades of grey. More like a kaleidoscopic view of people.

It can be difficult for some, but I am a simpleton. Humans solving human problems. Humans finding human ways to get along. The definition is easy, the solutions are not.
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!
