Our evolutionary history tells us two important truths: that we are connected in flesh and blood to all living things on earth, and that we are something new and wonderful.
Secular people generally don’t connect to communities the way believers often do, so here’s your reminder. It’s natural and healthy to be part of a group that cares about you.
Some corporations run entirely on their ability to get you to consume their unhealthy products. They are devoted full time to distracting you from a better life. Enjoy what you like, but don’t get sucked in.
The world isn’t as simple as it looks. The mind expects bright lines and clear definitions, but nature is variable. In a world of exceptions, humans in particular are exceptional.
Your intuitions are generally accurate but bound to be biased in predictable directions. Just because you feel like something is true doesn’t mean it’s true.
Even when serious problems are a result of human activity, there is no reason to be misanthropic. Very few people are so selfish that they feel no obligation to contribute to this world. Those who seem so may just be in denial: holding onto beliefs that have become obsolete.
In time you grow as a person to hopefully have a better understanding of what you do not know. When you are young you think you know everything and as you grow older you realize how little you do know and hopefully gain a better understanding of life itself.

Knowledge and the application of that knowledge are the key to progress. All efforts towards increasing knowledge should be used in a way that is beneficial to all people rather than a select few.
