MY BELIEFS

The assertion that we require a supernatural dictator to inform us of what is right or wrong is an attack on human integrity itself and an entirely immoral suggestion. Far from being a foundation of morality, religion hijacks and corrupts our basic moral intuitions.

Religious faith, indeed belief in any supernatural proposition that cannot be positively demonstrated by means of independently verifiable, independently reproducible, theoretically falsifiable, empirical, objective evidence, is an act of supreme intellectual dishonesty.

All ideas are subject to critical dissection and future correction. New evidence must always be allowed for and factored into our thinking. To hold onto any idea as unquestionable/unchallengeable is a form of bigotry.

It is up to each of us to define our purpose for ourselves.

Intellectual honesty demands that all(!) beliefs be forever subject to future review in the face of new evidence. By defining oneself by any system of belief, we hinder our capacity to readily adopt new ideas. We should never entangle our self-definition with fallible beliefs.

All future enlightenment will be born out of the shadows of our ignorance. Instead of filling the gaps in our knowledge with mythology, let us freely acknowledge our current limits thereby enabling the work necessary to realize a more knowledgeable future.
