Humanism’s focus, &lt;del style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tben&lt;/del&gt;, is on using human efforts to meet human needs and wants in this world. History shows that those efforts are most effective when &lt;del style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbey &lt;/del&gt;involve both compassion and &lt;del style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbe &lt;/del&gt;scientific method, which includes reliance on reason, evidence, and free inquiry. Humanism says people can find purpose in life and maximize &lt;del style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbeir &lt;/del&gt;long-term happiness, not via any form of Spirituality, but by developing &lt;del style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbeir &lt;/del&gt;talents and using those talents for &lt;del style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbe &lt;/del&gt;service of humanity. Humanists believe that this approach to life is more productive and leads to a deeper and longer-lasting satisfaction than a hedonistic pursuit of material or sensual pleasures that soon fade.

Humanists believe that this approach to life is more productive and leads to a deeper and longer-lasting satisfaction than a hedonistic pursuit of material or sensual pleasures that soon fade. While service to &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;otbers &lt;/ins&gt;is a major focus of Humanism, recreation and relaxation are not ignored, for &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbese &lt;/ins&gt;too are necessary for long-term health and happiness. Humanism considers &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbe &lt;/ins&gt;universe to be &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbe &lt;/ins&gt;result of an extremely long and complex evolution under immutable laws of [[nature]]. Humanists view this natural world as wondrous and precious, and as offering limitless opportunities for exploration, fascination, creativity, companionship, and joy. Because science cannot now and probably never will be able to explain &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbe &lt;/ins&gt;ultimate origin or destiny of &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbe &lt;/ins&gt;universe, humanism cannot be complete.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

Humanism maintains there is no evidence a supernatural power ever needed or wanted anything from people, ever communicated to them, or ever interfered with the laws of nature to assist anyone. Humanism’s focus, then, is on using human efforts to meet human needs and wants in this world. History shows that those efforts are most effective when they involve both compassion and the scientific method, which includes reliance on reason, evidence, and free inquiry. Humanism says people can find purpose in life and maximize their long-term happiness, not via any form of Spirituality, but by developing their talents and using those talents for the service of humanity. Humanists believe that this approach to life is more productive and leads to a deeper and longer-lasting satisfaction than a hedonistic pursuit of material or sensual pleasures that soon fade. While service to others is a major focus of Humanism, recreation and relaxation are not ignored, for these too are necessary for long-term health and happiness. Humanism considers the universe to be the result of an extremely long and complex evolution under immutable laws of nature. Humanists view this natural world as wondrous and precious, and as offering limitless opportunities for exploration, fascination, creativity, companionship, and joy. Because science cannot now and probably never will be able to explain the ultimate origin or destiny of the universe, humanism cannot be complete.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class=&quot;diff-marker&quot; data-marker=&quot;+&quot;&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style=&quot;color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;Humanism is a globalist, Atheistic philosophy of life that considers the welfare of humankind, rather than the welfare of a supposed God or gods, to be of paramount importance.

Humanism maintains there is no evidence a supernatural power ever needed or wanted anything from people, ever communicated to them, or ever interfered with &lt;del style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbe &lt;/del&gt;laws of nature to assist anyone. Humanism’s focus, then, is on using human efforts to meet human needs and wants in this world. History shows that those efforts are most effective when they involve both compassion and &lt;del style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbe &lt;/del&gt;scientific method, which includes reliance on reason, evidence, and free inquiry. Humanism says people can find purpose in life and maximize their long-term happiness, not via any form of Spirituality, but by developing their talents and using those talents for &lt;del style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbe &lt;/del&gt;service of humanity. Humanists believe that this approach to life is more productive and leads to a deeper and longer-lasting satisfaction than a hedonistic pursuit of material or sensual pleasures that soon fade. While service to others is a major focus of Humanism, recreation and relaxation are not ignored, for these too are necessary for long-term health and happiness. Humanism considers &lt;del style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbe &lt;/del&gt;universe to be &lt;del style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbe &lt;/del&gt;result of an extremely long and complex evolution under immutable laws of nature. Humanists view this natural world as wondrous and precious, and as offering limitless opportunities for exploration, fascination, creativity, companionship, and joy. Because science cannot now and probably never will be able to explain &lt;del style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbe &lt;/del&gt;ultimate origin or destiny of &lt;del style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;tbe &lt;/del&gt;universe, humanism cannot be complete.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class=&quot;diff-marker&quot; data-marker=&quot;+&quot;&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style=&quot;color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;Humanism is a globalist, Atheistic philosophy of life that considers &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;the &lt;/ins&gt;welfare of humankind, rather than &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;the &lt;/ins&gt;welfare of a supposed God or gods, to be of paramount importance.
