Humanism - Religion: Encyclopedia II - Culture of human beings - Religion

Scientists and naturalist philosophers largely agree that humans consist of a body alone (roughly the physicalist or reductionist view); or that they also have minds, the locus of, or another word for, consciousness (roughly the dualist position). However, many people further believe that humans also have a soul or spirit that survives death; that is, they believe there is an afterlife. There is debate within religious organizations as to whether non-human animals can be said to have souls; some believe they do, while others believe t ...

Humanism - Religion: Encyclopedia II - Accommodation religion - In the Bible and in human language
Throughout the history of the Christian church, it has been generally held that the Bible - both the Old Testament and the New Testament - were divinely inspired. The principle of Accommodation allows for both the ability of the Bible to communicate objective spiritual truths about the nature of God, as well as the ability of the human authors to act as God's means by which this is to be communicated to mankind. While it is true that the authors themselves were limited and prone to mistakes, Accommodation allows for the perfect and truthful God to work in and through his human agents ...

Humanism - Religion: Encyclopedia II - Human rights in Belarus - Freedom of religion

Jews are not the only minority who are said to have had their human rights violated in Belarus. On March 25, 2004 [5] the Associated Press reported that a ban exists on home worship in the country and that members of four Protestant churches had recently asked the government to repeal a 2002 law which forbade them worshipping from their own homes, even though they were members of legally registered religions. The Christian Post reported in an April 21, 2005 article [6] that non-denominational, charismatic churches were worse affected by the ...

Humanism - Religion: Encyclopedia - Humanism

Humanism is a broad category of active ethical philosophies that affirm the dignity and worth of all people, based on our ability to determine what is right using the qualities innate to humanity, particularly rationality. Humanism is a component of a variety of more specific philosophical systems. Humanism entails a commitment to the search for truth and morality through human means in support of human interests. In focusing on our capacity for self-determination, humanism rejects transcendental justifications, such as ...

Humanism - Religion: Encyclopedia II - Human rights in the People's Republic of China - Freedom of religion

(See also: Religion in China) During the Cultural Revolution, religion of all types was persecuted and discouraged by the Communists with many religious buildings looted and destroyed. This attitude was relaxed in the early 1970's, the 1978 Constitution guarantees Freedom of Religion with a number of restrictions. In practice, religious groups seen as a threat to the government, most famously Falun Gong, are harshly suppressed, while those that are not are left alone. Membership in the Communist Party is seen as incompatible wi ...

Humanism - Religion: New Global Order and Oneness Principle

New Global Order and Oneness Principle

Thirty years ago the historian Arnold Toynbee and Daisaku Ikeda, head of the Japanese Buddhist Soka Gokkai International, discussed at length various pertinent issues, trying to discern the future direction that our world must take if it is to survive these "times of the end".

 

Toynbee remarks, "...The question of mankind's future religion arises because all the current religions have proved unsatisfactory... A future religion that is to bring into being, and to keep in being, a new civilisation will have to be one that will enable mankind to contend with, and to overcome, the evils that are serious present threats to human survival."

Humanism - Religion: Encyclopedia - Culture of human beings

The culture of human beings can be defined as follows: One common understanding of culture is to see it as consisting of three elements: values, social norms, and artifacts. Values are ideas about what is important. Norms are expectations of how people ought to behave. Each human culture has different methods, often called laws and legal systems, of describing and enforcing its norms, though there are unwritten expectations and informal sanctions too. Artifacts – things, or material culture – derive from the culture's value ...

Humanism - Religion: Encyclopedia - Deity

A deity or a god, is a postulated preternatural being, usually, but not always, of significant power, worshipped, thought holy, divine, or sacred, held in high regard, or respected by human beings. They assume a variety of forms, but are frequently depicted as having human or animal form. Sometimes it is considered blasphemous to imagine the deity as having any concrete form. They are usually immortal. They are commonly assumed to have personalities and to possess consciousness, intellects, desires, and emotions much like human ...

Humanism - Religion: Encyclopedia - Longevity

Longevity is long life or existence. Reflections on longevity have usually gone beyond acknowledging the basic shortness of human life and included thinking about, and conceiving, methods to extend life (indefinitely). Longevity has been a topic not only for the scientific community but also for writers of travel, science fiction and utopian novels. The record human lifespan that has been authenticated is the 122 years 164 days of Jeanne Calment, though fiction, legend, and mythology have proposed or claimed vastly longer lifespans in ...

Humanism - Religion: Encyclopedia II - Culture of human beings - Humanism

Humanism as a philosophy defines a socio-political doctrine the bounds of which are not constrained by those of locally developed cultures, but which includes all of humanity and all issues common to human beings. Because collective spirituality often manifests as religion, the history of which is as factious as it is unitive, secular humanism grew as an answer to the need for a common philosophy that transcended the cultural boundaries of local moral codes and religions. Many humanists are religious, however, and see humanism as simply a ma ...

Humanism - Religion: Encyclopedia II - Culture of human beings - Language

The faculty of speech may be a defining feature of humanity, probably predating phylogenetic separation of the modern population. (See Proto-World language, Origins of language.) Language is central to the communication between humans. The Hebrew word for "animal" (behemah) means "mute", defining humans as the "speaking animal" (animal loquens), though some scientists argue that non-human animals are able to use language too, and that non-human primates are able to learn human sign language [1] [2] (pdf), a subject of ongoing controversy among linguists. Language can be central to the sen ...

Humanism - Religion: Encyclopedia II - Human rights in Belarus - Gays and lesbians

Belarus legalised homosexuality in 1994. However, homosexuals face widespread discrimination in Belarus. In recent years gay pride parades have been held in Minsk. One notable parade was staged in 2001, when presidential elections were held in the country. However, according to Outrage!, a gay rights organisation based in Britain, a gay-rights conference in 2004 had to be called off after authorities threatened to arrest those taking part. The country's only gay club, Oscar, was closed in 2000, and in April 1999, the Belarus Lambda League's efforts to gain ...

On 3 August, 2005, an activist working for the Union of Poles, which represents the Polish minority community, was arrested and given a 15-day jail sentence. Lukashenko also accused the Polish minority of plotting to overthrow him. The former head of the Union of Poles, Tadeusz Gawin, was later given a second sentence for allegedly beating one of his cellmates, a claim he denies. The offices of the Union of Poles were raided on 27 July, 2005, in a crisis which had come to the surface the previous day when Andrzej Olborski, a Polish di ...

President Alexander Lukashenko provoked outrage when he praised Hitler in a Russian NTV interview in 1995, saying that: The history of Germany is a copy of the history of Belarus. Germany was raised from the ruins thanks to firm authority, and not everything connected with that well known figure, Adolf Hitler, was bad. German order evolved over the centuries and under Hitler it attained its peak. In 2004, Charter 97 reported that for some government job applications Belarussians are required to state their nationality. This has ...

Belarus has come under fierce attack from Amnesty International for its treatment of political prisoners, including those from the youth wing of the Belarusian Popular Front, a pro-democracy party. In a report dated 26 April 2005, Amnesty again criticised Belarus for its treatment of dissidents, including a woman imprisoned for publishing a satirical poem. Another political prisoner who has been in jail since 1999 is Yury Bandazhevsky, a scientist who was jailed ...

The situation of trade unions and their members in the region has also been criticised by Amnesty UK, with allegations that authorities have interfered in trade union elections and that independent trade union leaders have been dismissed from their positions.
