MY BELIEFS

Because in a humanist society, children will be taught to nurture their natural curiosity, and tend to it like a farmer tends his field of crops; with an observing and watchful eye. A strong, unquenchable curiosity is the basis for all scientific inquiry and development of self.
Elementary, My dear Watson. We have, every year, a population which has just spent it's entirety of life sipping from the silver spoon of good ole' American privilege. We expect these individuals to finance an education the size of a household mortgage. Library cards are free.
Silence is a cry for help: "I don't know what to do, i'm not sure what to say." Picture living in a community where it almost feels taboo to speak your mind. People should be empowered to speak unconventional truths. "Open&Honest discussion minus the ad-hominem attacks, please."
This cripples the black market which reduces unnecessary crime and prison convictions. Let natural selection decide which drugs humanity should best be identified with. If people can already legally kill themselves with cigarettes and alcohol, I should be able to trip balls.
Like the movie SnowPiercer, 1st world people live luxurious lifestyles compared to their 3rd world companions, who scrape by and barely make ends meet. The point is, we should be mindful of the fact that there are still people on this planet who would kill to be in our positions.
It would be a stretch to say that meditation can end all human suffering, but I enjoy throwing the curve ball, so I'll say it anyways: Meditation is a practice which has the very real ability of bringing true "inner" peace to those that consistently practice. Live. In. The. Now.
While we can sit and argue to death the validity of scriptures and the niceties of bronze-age rhetoric, it's honestly rather irrelevant for the average Joe seeking purpose in the 21st century. The 21st century is ripe for inner exploration and personal truth seeking. So have fun.
A kid who is taught to think, instead of swallowing whatever pill life throws at him, will already be far beyond the curve in terms of personal development, and will instinctively make the right decisions without the cowardly threat of hell-fire and eternal damnation. Namaste.
Human beings are notorious for not knowing what the hell to do with their lives. We find ourselves stuck in dead end jobs, merely existing for a paycheck, unsure if it will be the last or not. To paraphrase Alan Watts "What would you do if money were no object?" Then, do that.
This is about making a statement regarding energy consumption and how we would benefit from consuming less and less electricity. I think it'd be really cool if the whole nation went without electricity for a week and instead burned candles. Zero light pollution and a starry sky.
