Renaissance -- Printing And Thinking
The Humanist philosophy. The new interest in secular life led to beliefs about education and society that came from Greece and Rome.
http://www.learner.org/exhibits/renaissance/printing_sub.html

Extractions: The Humanist Philosophy The new interest in secular life led to beliefs about education and society that came from Greece and Rome. The secular, humanist idea held that the church should not rule civic matters, but should guide only spiritual matters. The church disdained the accumulation of wealth and worldly goods, supported a strong but limited education, and believed that moral and ethical behavior was dictated by scripture. Humanists, however, believed that wealth enabled them to do fine, noble deeds, that good citizens needed a good, well-rounded education (such as that advocated by the Greeks and Romans), and that moral and ethical issues were related more to secular society than to spiritual concerns. From The Western Tradition series.

Extractions: Humanism As the Next Step by Lloyd and Mary Morain (Amherst, NY: Humanist Press, 1998); 145 pp.; $10 paper. This book fills a significant gap in recent humanist literature. It has three main merits. It is written in simple, straightforward language for the reader who is without philosophical expertise. It is fair-minded and inclusive in its treatment of the various tendencies and viewpoints within the humanist movement. And it conveys the moral and inner adequacy of a humanist philosophy as experienced in the lives of its two veteran humanist authors. In short, it is a book that one can confidently give to any friend who asks, "Is humanism right for me?" Between them, Lloyd and Mary Morain have shared more than a century of organized humanism. Nearly fifty years ago, Lloyd occupied the presidency of the American Humanist Association, while Mary served as an original director of the International Humanist and Ethical Union, an organization that both helped to found.

Extractions: Interview of Gene Roddenberry: Writer, Producer, Philosopher, Humanist Originally published in The Humanist , March/April 1991 Interview conducted by David Alexander This interview appears here with the permission of the author. Gene Roddenberry is one of the most influential yet unheralded humanists of the twentieth century. His two most famous creations, Star Trek and its successor Star Trek The Next Generation , are solidly based upon humanistic principles and ideas. His creations have moved, inspired and sparked the imaginations of millions of people around the world. The basic massage of both Star Trek and Star Trek The Next Generation is that human beings are capable of solving their own problems rationally and that, through critical thinking and cooperative effort, humanity will progress and evolve. Star Trek Star Trek has run continuously in at least 150 markets in the United States, as well as dozens of foreign countries. This year marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the most successful television series in history. In September 1987, Star Trek The Next Generation debuted. Now, over 80 episodes later, it has surpassed in longevity the original series.
The Renaissance
Metaphilosophy Does philosophy have a distinctive place in human life generally? What are the proper aims and methods of philosophical inquiry?
http://www.philosophypages.com/hy/3t.htm

Extractions: Pages F A Q Dictionary ... Locke Medieval philosophy had culminated in the cumulative achievements of scholasticism , a grand system of thought developed by generations of patient scholars employing neoplatonic and Aristotelean philosophy in the service of traditional Christian theology. But by the end of the fifteenth century, confidence in the success of this enterprise had eroded, and many thinkers tried to make a fresh start by rejecting such extensive reliance on the authority of earlier scholars. Just as religious reformers challenged ecclesiastical authority and made individual believers responsible for their own relation to god, prominent Renaissance thinkers proposed an analogous elimination of all appeals to authority in education and science. Educational practice was revolutionized by the recovery of ancient documents, the rejection of institutional authority, and renewed emphasis on individual freedom. The humanists expressed an enormous confidence in the power of reason as a source of profound understanding of human nature and of our place in the natural order. Giovanni Pico della Mirandola's Oration , for example, held forth the possibilities for a comprehensive new order of knowledge relying on human understanding without reference to divine revelation. For some, like
TRINITARIAN PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY, Trinitism, Philosophy
So the same principles of the Human Calendar may be applied to psychology, sociology, politics, history, philosophy, and theology.
http://hometown.aol.com/trinitine/esay3.htm

Extractions: Main Personal Interests My Favorite Places htmlAdWH('7008051', '234', '60'); Basis of the Trinitarian philosophy of history? It is based on the premise that individual man is a balancing trinity of spirit-mind-body. These function thru his spiritual-rational-sensual minds that determine his spiritual-rational-sensual values. He is born to be dominant in one of these balancing values, but has free will to live by any one of them. As the mind can be on only one thing, his changing minds and values are the basis for changes in his life. In principle, the collective extension of the individual's history is that of the nation and civilization. Basis of man's free will: Man is born to have conflict between his spiritual mind and values that say "No" to sensual change and his sensual mind and values that say "Yes" to sensual change. His rational mind says "Maybe" before judging to support one side or the other. It determines how the person will go. Thus, within limits of his dominant being, man has a rational, free-willed self-control of his value-changes. These principles of the individual apply to his civilization. This is evident in Western Civilization with its dominantly spiritual Medieval Age of theology, the rational Renaissance Age of philosophy, and the sensual Modern Age of science. Extending from this free-willed trinity of spiritual-rational-sensual ages there may be a non-free-willed, emotive Age of No-values.

http://www.positiveatheism.org/india/s1990c22.htm

Extractions: from the address at Community Church, New York on April 20, 1930 Atheism rises above creeds and puts Humanity upon one plane. There can be no "chosen people" in the Atheist philosophy. There are no bended knees in Atheism; No supplications, no prayers; No sacrificial redemptions; No "divine" revelations; No washing in the blood of the lamb; No crusades, no massacres, no holy wars; No heaven, no hell, no purgatory; No silly rewards and no vindictive punishments; No christs, and no saviors; No devils, no ghosts and no gods. Atheism breaks down the barriers of nationalities and like "one touch of nature makes the whole world kin." Systems of religion make people clannish and bigoted.

Extractions: Main I think that Renaissance humanist philosophy is often misunderstood; and this mistake matters to me because I favor a revival of the real methods of the humanists. The standard view is that Renaissance humanists taught original doctrines , especially the "dignity of man" that was the theme of Marsilio Ficino 's famous oration. They are thought to be "humanists" because they believed in the centrality of human beings as opposed to God. In turn, Renaissance humanists wrote, not abstract treatises, but stories told by and about literary characters in concrete situations. Often these works were ironic. Utopia , the Praise of Folly , and the Prince share a surprising feature: people have argued for centuries about whether their authors were serious or joking. Utopia and the Praise of Folly are narrated by fictional characters, distant from their authors. And Machiavelli wrote the Prince for a ruler who was likely to execute him if he spoke his mind. Its real meaning may be ironic.
