Not really. It says to not push your own beliefs on others. This thing is not a demand of everyone, it is simply a summary of the humanist creed, a summary of what it means to be a humanist.
Quote:First, though, it must be said that the idea of a secular Ten Commandments should best be viewed not as a set of rigid, unbreakable rules (for what punishment should a humanist fear from breaking them?). Rather, these should be read more as strongly-worded suggestions for living, the kinds of ideas that, if everyone followed them, might make the world a better place all around.

Something everyone is conveniently not reading on the quoted blog...
