In this topic, I want to discuss Ed Braytons worldviews, the worldview of secular humanism in general and how it contrasts with the Christian worldview which I attempt to push. I have respect for the man just by reading his eulogy and seeing how empathetic he was towards his fellow humans.
I'm not going to attempt to speak for Ed Brayton, I don't know much of anything about him.
But, in general, I've always thought (reduced to extremely short sentences):
Worldview of Christians: "Following God is the best way to live life. God is love."
Worldview of Secular Humanists: "Following Love is the best way to live life."
It seems to me that the two are, in a practical-sense, the same thing.
The Christians just add this "God" figure on top of it. And then cause a lot of drama about the God figure. Removing focus from the Love part.
Secular Humanists don't include the God figure, so there's no extra drama from that... and focus on the Love part. Because that's the only part.
