Product Description
Why is humanism, a belief that emphasizes man, his natural abilities, and the values of worldly life needed to be diskussed again?
Since the 14th century the modern humanist movement has grown to provide rational interpretations that question the monopoly of religion and the state on interpretation of truth. Secular humanism gives us the belief that "up-and-coming" life is no more important than "down-world." Humanism, however, did not escape criticism. When humanism leads to a godless humanity, the state in which humans play as gods, Hiroshima, gulags, Killing Fields, Sebrenica, and other places of mass murder in the 20th century become inevitable. In our country, the tragedy of humanity is also not quiet. Does that mean that humanism is obsolete?
When the rise of religions is in progress, not many obstacles and universal values are relative, what wisdom can we learn from humanism?
The booklet clearly outlines the understanding of humanism, its development, and its critique of humanism. Not stopping there, the author also offered a new interpretation of the idea, which he referred to as "flexible humanism".
