Humanism
#8
RE: Humanism
I originally thought humanism was just putting human wellbeing in general at the centre of or values, as opposed to trying to please some external thing or just pleasing ourselves individually.

I would agree with that, except I generally try to raise the value of animals to be as on par as possible with humans. (Obviously this is an ideal that can't ever be truly achieved.)

It seems there may be more to it than that, if so I have no need for it. This is also covered by "Duh!" for me, as is equality, and other such things that seem very obvious.
Feel free to send me a private message.
Please visit my website here! It's got lots of information about atheism/theism and support for new atheists.
