What is Humanism?

What is humanism?

Humanism is the philosophy that emphasizes the value and agency of human beings.

It is the view that places human beings at the center of moral concerns, advocating for human dignity, freedom, and the development of human potential.

In doing so, it prefers the use of reason and science over religion, of critical thinking and evidence over superstition and dogma.

In this video, we will talk about what humanism is, its history, and some of its key ideas and criticisms.

Science only describes the universe; it does not explain it. Humanism is another name for scientism with many of its' own dogmas,
