| ARTICLES RELATED TO List of religious topics | | | |  List of religious topics: Encyclopedia II - Humanism - Modern humanist philosophiesThere are many people who consider themselves humanists, and much variety in the exact type of humanism they believe in. There is some disagreement over terminology and definitions, with some people using narrower or broader interpretations. Not all people who call themselves humanists hold beliefs that are genuinely humanistic, and not all people who do hold humanistic beliefs apply the label of humanism to themselves.
All of this aside, humanism can be divided into secular and religious types.< ...

Humanism - Religion.
While humanism in some ways fulfills or supplements the role of religions in people's lives, and therefore qualifies as a stance on religion, it is not a religion in itself. It is entirely compatible with naturalism (and therefore atheism), but doesn't strictly require either of these, and is in fact compatible with some types of religion.
Though the dominant forms of humanism are atheistic (and express a disbelief in the supernatural), not all forms of humanism are. However, humanism ...

| | | | | List of religious topics: Encyclopedia II - Humanism - Other forms of humanism Humanism is also sometimes used to describe "humanities" scholars, (particularly scholars of the Greco-Roman classics). As mentioned above, it is sometimes used to mean humanitarianism. There is also a school of humanistic psychology, and an educational method.

| | | | | List of religious topics: Encyclopedia II - Meaning of life - Scientific approaches and theories Where scientists and philosophers converge on the quest for the meaning of life is an assumption that the mechanics of life (i.e., the universe) are determinable, thus the meaning of life may eventually be derived through our understanding of the mechanics of the universe in which we live, including the mechanics of the human body.
There are, however, strictly speaking, no scientific views on the meaning of biological life other than its observable biological function: to continue and to reproduce itself. In this regard, science simply addresses quantitative questions such as: "What does it do?", "By wha ...

| | | | | List of religious topics: Encyclopedia II - Meaning of life - Religious beliefs It is often suggested that religion is a response to humanity's need to simply stop being confused, or to the fear of death (and the concomitant desire not to die). By defining a realm outside of life (the spiritual realm), these needs are fulfilled by providing a meaning, purpose, and hope for our otherwise pointless, directionless, and finite lives. Most people who believe in a personal God would agree that it is God "in whom we live and move and have our being". The notion here is that we ought to seek a higher authority who will give our ...

| | | | | List of religious topics: Encyclopedia II - Meaning of life - Humorous treatments The very concept "the meaning of life" has become such a cliché that it has often been parodied, such as in the radio series The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, later released as a novel, a television series, a film, and a computer game. His answer was 42. As the story goes, an advanced race of hyper-intelligent pan-dimensional beings (mice) builds a gigantic computer called Deep Thought to find the Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything. Seven and a half million years later, the computer gives the answer: "4 ...

| | | | | List of religious topics: Encyclopedia II - Meaning of life - Philosophical views
Meaning of life - Value as meaning.
In that they attempt to answer the question "What is valuable in life?", theories of value are theories of the meaning of life: great philosophers such as Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Descartes, Spinoza, and many others had clear views about what sort of life was best (and hence most meaningful).
Meaning of life - Atheist views.
Atheism in the strictest sense means the belief that no god or supernatural overbeing (of any type or number) exists ...

| | | | | List of religious topics: Encyclopedia II - Meaning of life - Spiritual views Mitch Albom wrote about his dying professor Morrie and their last lessons together in the bestseller Tuesdays with Morrie in which some interesting questions were raised. Albom's life as a writer was until then in vain because he chased the wrong things in life: bigger houses, bigger SUVs, and bigger paychecks. No matter how big they were, they still could not fill his emptiness. The reality that we all have to confront eventually is the same thing Morrie realized when he learned he had Lou Gehrig's disease: that the world was as gree ...

Law - Civil law.
The Civilian system of law is a codified law that sets out a comprehensive system of rules that are applied and interpreted by judges. It is by and large the most commonly practiced system of law in the world, with almost 60 % of the world's population living in a country ruled on the civilian system.
The most important difference to common law is that normally, only legislative enactments are con ...

Law - Private law.

| | | | | List of religious topics: Encyclopedia II - Law - Philosophy of law Philosophy of law is a branch of philosophy and jurisprudence which studies basic questions about law and legal systems, such as "What is the law?", "What are the criteria for legal validity?", "What is the relationship between law and morality?" and many other similar questions.
In the Western tradition there are several schools of thought on the philosophical basis of law. First, there is natural law, which attempts to describe law as an inherent quality in humans that is derived from nature. Second, there is the positivism which be ...

| | | | | List of religious topics: Encyclopedia II - Law - Anthropology of law Law has an anthropological dimension. It has been recognized from Montesquieu to the present that law is shaped by the kind of society in which it is practised.
One continuum into which various societies can be placed contrasts the "culture of law" with the "culture of honour". In order to have a culture of law, people must dwell in a society where a government exists whose authority is hard to evade and generally recognised as legitimate. People take their grievances before the government and its agents, who arbitrate disputes and en ...

| | | | | List of religious topics: Encyclopedia II - Law - Practice of law Practice of law is typically overseen by either a government organization or independent regulating body such as a bar association or barrister society. To practice law--i.e., appear in front of a judge on behalf of someone, draft legal documents, etc.--the practitioner must be certified by the regulating body. This usually entails a two or three-year program at a university’s faculty of law or a law school, which earns the student an LLB degree. This course of study is followed by an entrance examination (e.g., bar admission). Advanced la ...
