bokonon Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 i went to the word on the street festival in kitchener today and i went to a booth run by the humanist association of canada. personally, i find this philosophy quite interesting and appealing. my username actually is a character in a kurt vonnegut book that follows this philosophy. here is a sample from the site, it's the atheist rant. Hey, I'm not a Catholic or a Protestant, and I don't go to church or swallow transubstantiated bread and wine. I don't know Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John, although I do know John, Paul, George, and Ringo. I grasp reality, not a fantasy. I speak the truth, not insanity. And I pronounce it "atheist" not "a theist". I can proudly get religion off my back. I believe in life here, not "hereafter". Rationality, not rationalization. Humans can be truly proud and noble animals. Let's tip our hats to science and compassion, and make a pronounced difference in the world! Atheism is second to no religion! First and last, it's the best part of being alive! My name is Heathen and I'm an atheist! www.hac.humanists.net/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
