Fred Edwords Quotes

• Gran parte del progreso humano ha sido un desafío a la religión o al aparente orden natural. El desafío a la autoridad religiosa y secular ha conducido a la democracia, los derechos humanos y la protección del medio ambiente. Los humanistas no se disculpan por ello. Los humanistas no tergiversan ninguna doctrina bíblica para justificar tales acciones.

• Though we [Humanists] take a strict position on what constitutes knowledge, we are not critical of the source of ideas. Often intuitive feelings, hunches, speculation, and flashes of inspiration prove to be excellent sources of novel approaches, new ways of looking at things, new discoveries, and new information. We do not disparage those ideas derived from religious experience, altered states of consciousness, or the emotions; we merely declare that testing these ideas against reality is the only way to determine their validity as knowledge.
