Kurt Vonnegut Quote on Humanism

Posted on 7:46 AM by Unknown

Morteza Katouzian

Humanists try to behave decently and honourably without any expectation of rewards or punishments in an afterlife. And, since the creator of the universe is to them unknowable so far, they serve as best can the highest abstraction of which they have some understanding, which is their community.

We are healthy only to the extent that our ideas are humane.
