Hi all,

Is the MOQ a humanism? That's an interesting question which enticed me
to make the mistake of skimming a long thread on the subject which
will forever be an embarrassment to the moq.org archives. I wonder if
it would be possible for such a thread to find its point?

I would say that it is an anti-humanism in that it refuses the notion
of human nature as something upon which a philosophy of ethics can be
built, and it is a version of Secular Humanism in that it seeks human
well-being independently from the notion of God's will or the
possibility of attaining an other-worldly afterlife.

Best,
Steve
