Hi everyone, I'm looking to start my own topic when I have time, I couldn't let this blatant hypocrisy slide however.

Also...all three of these documents are arrogant, unsubstantiated, and far from conclusive. Jesus lives...regardless of what the puny human animal thinks about itself and its place in the universe.
Humanist Manifesto
Humanist Manifesto II
Humanist Manifesto III

I would argue that if you think your original source was mindless and that there is no God, you are still mindless.
You assert that the humanist manifesto is arrogant, obviously because it rejects god/s. Then you go on to insult people who value evidence and reason as puny human animals for simply not believing in your particular brand of fantasy.
Treating your own beliefs as fact and deriding others for not accepting your nonsense is far more arrogant than rejecting fantasy in favor of just looking out for people.

I thought it clear that the purpose of my post was to point out the arrogance and thus hypocrisy displayed by you Phat. The topic I intend to start has nothing to do with the humanist manifesto.
Do you have any real reason to criticise the HM? Other than your pet beliefs that is? If you have a genuine criticism, I suggest you start a thread about it. I'm not interested in a debate on the validity of the HM if your only criticism is that it rejects jesus. Please delete this thread.
