It seeks only RATIONAL ways of solving human problems:

                        What is humanism?

Humanism is a democratic and ethical life stance, which affirms that human beings have the right and responsibility to give meaning and shape to their own lives.

                                       It stands for the building of a more humane society through an ethic based on human and other natural values in the spirit of reason and free inquiry through human capabilities.

        

It is not theistic, and it does not accept supernatural views of reality.

Due to their innately enlightened minds, a true humanist would never adopt an assault weapon as a national symbol... a pity to those whose mental stance has never adequately evolved, as they recently embraced such folly...

"This" type of boxcar

Does not grace a train;

Nor ship-dock, nor factory,

Nor school yard or plane...

In fact, it's 'bout numbers,

[And two are the same!]

A roll of the die

Should make it quite plain !!

      Congrats to Ryan and Alison

Remember how I used to sing

                                                                       

Probably not ! You were quite young. Tomorrow [2-5-2023] is your birthday, however. So I have this to say:

The gifts we'll best remember don't necessarily sparkle like bright fireworks but shine a light on many fond memories...
