The work which the Society hopes to accomplish during the coming season will be seen on the background of "The Catholic Revival" —the subject chosen by Mr. Hawton. It is hoped that a large audience will greet this opening occasion. Mr. Archibald Robertson will discuss Sir Winston Churchill's phrase, "This Terrible Twentieth Century", in his Sunday morning discourse, September 23. Mr. Robertson will attend the Reunion in the afternoon to introduce the Guest of Honour, Mr. Richard Clements, who will give a brief address. The informal gathering of members and friends at 3 p.m. 3 will open the Reunion. Mr. J. Hutton Hynd will preside over the more formal programme of speeches and music. Mr. G. Hutchinson, Hon. Secretary, Sunday Evening Concerts, will make brief reference to the Dora Mary Clements Memorial instrument, and will introduce Joyce Langley as pianist and accompanist. Songs and duets will be sung by Pamela Woolmore and Andrew Gold. Tea will be served at 4.45 p.m., and a generous margin of time will remain for an exchange of greetings between friends old and new. A cordial invitation is given to our friends of the Ethical Union, the Rationalist Press Association, the National Secular Society, and the Brixton, Chiswick, Orpington and Sutton Humanist Groups. Mrs. Mary Stocks, of B.B.C. "Any Questions", will receive a warm welcome on her second appearance on our Sunday morning platform, September 30. In her timely address, on "Radio, Press and Public", Mrs. Stocks will share with her audience her wide and varied experience as publicist and broadcaster. Conway Discussions will open on Tuesday, October 2, 7.15 p.m.—in part a social occasion, with panel discussion and interval for light refresh- ment. Conway Discussions is "a public forum for open discussion of current topics of importance. Topics introduced by outstanding speakers". All who are interested are very cordially invited. Advance notice is given that Mrs. Margaret Knight will give an address on "Intellectual and Emotional Beliefs", Sunday morning, October 7. (It should be noted that Mrs. Knight will speak at• a public meeting in Caxton Hall on the evening of Wednesday, October 3. The meeting has been arranged by the Humanist Council as an attempt to arouse public interest in the right of religious minorities to a fair proportion of time on sound- radio and television to express their points of view.) Freedom of the Air After his recent dispute with the B.B.C. Television authorities, the Humanist Cotmcil have asked Colin McCall, secretary of the National Secular Society, to undertake arrangements for launching a campaign for freedom of the air for the expression of Humanist views. The first meeting will be held at Caxton Hall on Wednesday, October 3, when Mrs. Margaret Knight will be among the speakers. This, then, is the time that humanists must begin to press to the utmost their claims to be heard through, as The Freethinker has put it, "the greatest propaganda medium ever invented." The American Link Dr. Henry Neumann, editor of The Ethical Outlook, and one of the leaders of the New York Ethical Society, has complimented The Monthly Record. He considers it ."so full of good,. things': Mat he often wants to "lift" some of tEem for The Ethical Outlook: We hAve given him per- mission to reprint Archibald Robertson's article on Ibsen and a paragraph in the Notes of the Month: "Lamentation and Shame." The Ethical Outlook, once called The Standard was, at one time, edited by our good friend Geo. E. O'Dell, who is once again resident in England. The link with our American cousins thus happily continues. Christianity and Communism Two different sorts of people are engaged in finding a parallel between Communism and Christianity. A distinguished Jesuit, Father Martin D'Arcy, has written a hook in which he declares (not without reason) that Communism today "is the most serious competitor to the Christianity 4 which has up to now been the greatest influence in the Western World". Most Catholics from the Pope down probably agree with Father D'Arcy. On the other hand Rationalists of the old liberal tradition see in Christianity and Communism two rival authoritarian systems both claiming infallibility and both, therefore, equally bad. Lord Russell, we believe, is on record as saying that Communism is the worse of the two, since no sensible man can believe in Christian dogma, whereas sensible people have unfortunately fallen for Marxism! An Old Parallel The parallel is not new. Friedrich Engels, co-founder with Marx of modern Communism, himself pointed it out. In an article written for the German Socialist magazine Neue Zeit he drew attention to the parallel between the appeal made by early Christianity to the slaves ahd poor freemen of the Roman Empire, and the appeal made by. modern Socialism to the workers of the world. Engels drew attention to other similarities, e.g. the analogy between the church organisation of early Christianity and the branch organisation of the Socialist movement, and the liability of both to be victimised by 'dishonest impostors (the adventurer yeregrinus described by Lucian in the second century, to whom Engels might have compared—but did not, for he never saw through him—the adventurer Edward Aveling in the nineteenth). Engels even compares Paul's appeal for funds in the Epistles with the eternal worry over finances which dogged the organisers of the First International. This-Worldly and Other-Worldly The parallel and the accompanying contrast were developed by Engels' friend Belfort Bax, one cd the pioneers of British Socialism, in one of his Essays in, Socialism New and Old, published in 1907. Bax, like Engels, points out the likeness, but he also points out the radical difference. Christianity as we know it (whatever we may conjecture about its origins) offers salvation not in this life, but in a future life. "Socialism, on the contrary, teaches that there is no salvation for the individual save in and through society." Or as the poet of The Internationale says: "No saviours from on high deliver, No trust have we in prince or peer; Our own right hand the chains must shiver— Chains of hatred, of greed and fear." Humanism and Communism A Humanist may object that the difference between "this-worldly" and "other-worldly" is irrelevant, that the point is that Christianity and Com- munism alike claim to know all the answers, and that it is that claim— not the kind of answer given—which.leads to the enslavement of the mind and to intolerance of dissent. The Communist may retort that no system devised by man is proof against disastrous error. Parliamentary government, the pride of the West, was not proof against the power-politics and secret diplomacy that deluged the earth in blood twice over in a lifetime, nor is it proof against Southern lynching or South African. apartheid.

  • NLC Ethical Culture Identity Statement
    Ethical Culture The following is a statement on where Ethical Culture/Ethical Humanism1 stands at the beginning of the 21st century. Its intent is to clarify our shared beliefs in language that resonates with the familiar and unfamiliar alike. Open to the possibilities of the future, it is part of a living canon—an expression of those Ethical Culture Leaders who endorse it and are devoted to furthering Ethical Humanism within its context. Dedicated to cultivating moral development in personal life and moral reform in society, Ethical Culture seeks to nurture relationships in which we act so as to elicit the best in others and thereby in ourselves, to provide inspiration and guidance for moral living, and to transform the way humanity views the meaning of life. Our faith is inspired and animated by the deliberate and reasoned choice of attributing worth and dignity to all. Imbued with a profound sense of interrelatedness, we recognize that we are both dependent and independent—each a unique end unto ourselves. We understand that if any one of us were different life itself would be different. It is through this sense of ourselves as members of an organic whole that we reinforce the attribution of moral worth to every individual. Ethical Culture is a religion of ethical relationships, a Humanist2 movement in which ethics is central. We organize congregationally in order to live out our values in community with others, inspired by the ideal of perfected living that always lies beyond our reach. Together we direct our efforts toward assuring a just and abundant life for all.

  • The National Organization for Women in Memphis, Columbus, and San Francisco
    RETHINKING THE LIBERAL/RADICAL DIVIDE: THE NATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR WOMEN IN MEMPHIS, COLUMBUS, AND SAN FRANCISCO DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy In the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Stephanie Gilmore, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by: Professor Leila J. Rupp, Advisor _________________________________ History Graduate Advisor Professor Susan M. Hartmann Professor Kenneth J. Goings ABSTRACT This project uses the history of the National Organization for Women (NOW) to explore the relationship of liberal and radical elements in the second wave of the U.S. women’s movement. Combining oral histories with archival documents, this project offers a new perspective on second-wave feminism as a part of the long decade of the 1960s. It also makes location a salient factor in understanding post– World War II struggles for social justice. Unlike other scholarship on second-wave feminism, this study explores NOW in three diverse locations—Memphis, Columbus, and San Francisco—to see what feminists were doing in different kinds of communities: a Southern city, a non-coastal Northern community, and a West Coast progressive location. In Memphis—a city with a strong history of civil rights activism—black-white racial dynamics, a lack of toleration for same-sex sexuality, and political conservatism shaped feminist activism. Columbus, like Memphis, had a dominant white population and relatively conservative political climate (although less so than in Memphis), but it also boasted an open lesbian community, strong university presence, and a history of radical feminism and labor activism.

Wescombe Correspondence: Noah J. Wescombe, School for Policy Studies, University of Bristol, United Kingdom. Received: May 17, 2019 Accepted: July 3, 2019 Online Published: July 4, 2019 doi:10.11114/smc.v7i2.4367 URL: https://doi.org/10.11114/smc.v7i2.4367 Abstract Veganism, as both a philosophy and social movement, faces numerous challenges to the communication of its ideas across society. As a unique modern counterculture, it stands in contravention of prevailing anthropological discourses that dominate conceptual frameworks. This has led to difficulty in constructing updated virtue epistemologies that result in veganism as a logical moral conclusion. It is clear that new social discourses need developing, and that this is a primary concern for affirming moral agency. To explain this and identify key issues and features, vegan communications are evaluated herein from a philosophical, psychological, and informational perspective, with a view of both historical and modern social contexts. In doing so, a number of novel theoretical reflections are offered. This is done through a discussion separated into four sections dealing first with a view of veganism in evolution, secondly with the social complexity of media trends and social positioning, thirdly with achieving constructive dialogue given present-day challenges, and finally with a discussion of modern information systems.

  • Appendix Deed Before Creed
    APPENDIX DEED BEFORE CREED I think it is funny that Adler starts the second chapter of Religion of Duty by positing a movement in which members are “in matter of religious opinion...entirely free to differ” while they all supposedly have a belief “that truth is progressive and may be increased in the world”. And then in the next paragraph he expresses the thought that people should have a definite concept of the meaning of god and if they don’t, they are without a robust mind. Felix Adler - Religion of Duty - Chapter 2 - Changes in the Conception of God In treating a distinctly religious subject such as that of the present chapter, it is not inexpedient to first point out the fact, that when I consider such themes I express my private views, and commit no one to them but myself. The members of the Ethical Society are bound by nothing but the acceptance of certain elementary moral truths, and are united in the endeavour to add to these, believing that truth is progressive and may be increased in the world, and that there is a duty to try to increase it. Members of an ethical society properly seek to sustain one another in an attempt better to realize in daily living the principles which are accepted by all. On great moral questions they are united; in matters of religious opinion they are entirely free tp differ. What I shall have to say upon a matter of religious opinion may not, then, be construed as a creed, to which the Ethical Society and fellowship shall be committed, but must be regarded as my personal opinion.

    UC Santa Barbara UC Santa Barbara Previously Published Works Title Secularism, Humanism, and Secular Humanism: Terms and Institutions Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/5023z45w Author Blankholm, Joseph Publication Date 2016 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Joseph Blankholm Department of Religious Studies University of California, Santa Barbara Secularism, Humanism, and Secular Humanism: Terms and Institutions Abstract: This chapter considers recent American attempts to recognize secular humanism as a religion in light of more than a century of debates over the religiosity of secularism and humanism. It offers a history of these terms’ codependent evolution in the United States by focusing on the individuals, groups, and institutions that have adopted them and shaped their meanings. The chapter also argues that those who use these terms today bear forth a fraught and sometimes self-contradicting inheritance. In order to recognize the stakes of contemporary struggles over the meaning and purpose of secularism, one needs a deeper understanding of how the term has come to bear its traces and how it fits within a shifting constellation of labels and concepts. Keywords: Secularism, Humanism, Secular Humanism, Organized Nonbelievers, Secular Activism, Separation of Church and State In October of 2014, a federal district judge in the state of Oregon ruled that secular humanism is a religion, at least for legal purposes involving the Establishment Clause of the U.S. Constitution’s First Amendment. The judge sided with the lawsuits’ plaintiffs, who argued that a humanist inmate at a federal prison should receive certain rights reserved solely for religious groups.

    “Let Our Little People Go Free:” Felix Adler’s Campaign for Social Justice in the Progressive Era Esther Lifshitz Senior Thesis HIST C4399 Department of History, Columbia University April 12, 2010 Lifshitz ii Acknowledgments This thesis benefited from the talent, wisdom, and dedication of many who merit mention. I would like to thank the wonderful librarians and staff at Columbia University’s libraries, particularly the archivists at the Rare Book and Manuscript Library for all their assistance. I am also sincerely grateful to the Leaders and affiliates of the New York Society for Ethical Culture, namely, Dr. Anne Klaeysen, Dr. Howard B. Radest, and Dr. Marc Bernstein, who were always gracious with their time and supportive of my research. The intelligence and passion of my history professors have inspired my outlook on history. While they did not contribute directly to this thesis, Professor Alan Brinkley and PhD student Alexander Kaye warrant mention for their influence on the development of my scholarship. This applies as well to professors Eric Foner and Casey Blake, who deserve special thanks for the generous time and advice they gave to this thesis. I must pay tribute to Professor Steven Mintz, my teacher for two semesters, advisor for the past two years, and second reader for this thesis. Professor Mintz was forever encouraging, considerate, and constructive; his patience and guidance were invaluable not only to this thesis but to my academic career. Among the many debts I owe to Professor Mintz, his classes shaped my approach to historical study. Professor Mintz is both an exceptional teacher and human being.

  • Fifty Years of History: the Ethical Humanist Society of Long Island
    Fifty Years of History: The Ethical Humanist Society of Long Island Introduction * In The Beginning: A brief retrospective of the Ethical Movement in the United States to the beginnings of the Ethical Humanist Society of Long Island. * 1950s – America Grows Up – Bricks And Ideas, The Ethical Culture Movement Comes To Long Island: We have built well. We have found that there is a strong need for an Ethical Society on Long Island, and we know that there is opportunity ahead of us. We see Long Island growing bigger and we want to help it grow better. We think we can do this by making our Meeting House that in spirit as well as name -- –a place where men meet to seek the highest together. -- –Sheldon Ackley, Leader 1950 -1959, Ethical Culture Society of Long Island * 1960s – Innocence Lost – Beginning The Battle: Today, when democracy is more aware how vast is its program of unfinished business, the call to increase the knowledge, the love, the practice of the best human relationships is still, we believe, the call to take part in the sublimest and most needed of [people's] endeavors. Responding to it by lives which add their gift, howsoever small, to the world's treasure of good and lovable living, lives which reanimate in others hope, trust, courage to keep moving ahead, can give people their most rewarding satisfaction and their truest title to the name human. -- –Henry Neumann, Leader, Brooklyn Society for Ethical Culture * 1970s – America At The Doorstep Of Self- DesctructionDesctructionDesctructionDestruction – A Light In The Dark: Nature is a source of strength.

  • The Mician Ethical Chapters a Taeko Brooks !!!!!!!!! ! University of Massachusetts at Amherst WSWG Note 94Rev (6 Mar 1996)
    100 The Mician Ethical Chapters A Taeko Brooks !!!!!!!!! ! University of Massachusetts at Amherst WSWG Note 94rev (6 Mar 1996) Abstract. The Mwo! dz" !!!! (MZ) consists of 71 numbered units, conventionally called chapters. The first 39 of these are on ethical or other doctrinal topics. Of them, 30 (MZ 8-37) are grouped in ten sets of three, which I will call triplets, each set having a collective title; 2 (MZ 38-39) form a duplet, also with a collective title; the other 7 (MZ 1-7) are individually titled singlets. Stylistic inconsistencies occur among and within triplets, in a pattern which suggests evolution over time. I here propose an order of composition of the triplets from this internal evidence, and extend that argument to the duplet and singlet chapters. I note the history of the Mician movement which this sequence implies, and compare it with contemporary evidence as a final test of the hypothesis, and as a way of providing the hypothesis with some approximate dates. The Triplet Chapters, MZ 8-37 Some triplet and duplet chapters are lost, but their relative position is given by the table of contents in the Da!u-dza!ng !!!! text. Graham argues that the triplets are the texts of three separate Mician schools.1 I find that they represent revisions within a single Mician movement, and that the details on which Graham bases his theory (like coverb !! alongside standard !!) are better accommodated by a single-school model. Topics are Valuing Ability !! !! (MZ 8-10), Valuing Unity !! !! (MZ 11-13), Universal Love !! !! (MZ 14-16), Against War !! !! (MZ 17-19), Modest Expenditures !!!! (MZ 20-22), Modest Funerals !!!! (MZ 23-25), Will of Heaven !!!! (MZ 26-28), On Ghosts !!!! (MZ 29-31), Against Music !!!! (MZ 32-34), and Against Fate !! !! (MZ 35-37).

    ETHICAL EXPLORATION IN A MULTIFAITH SOCIETY 1ST EDITION PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Catherine Shelley | 9783319467108 | | | | | Ethical Exploration in a Multifaith Society 1st edition PDF Book Because the Comptroller's test fails to include the whole range of belief systems that may, in our diverse and pluralistic society, merit the First Amendment's protection Hick, John. Michael Murray. A personal worldview is the lens through which the individual constructs the world van der Kooij et al. But these monotheists and cosmos-worshipers each take their object to be ultimate, and would deny the existence of any further back entity or non-entity, that is, of Creativity. This contrasts to the world religions approach and instead empowers the individual and her worldview as it is lived. Another naive exclusivist view which is rejected by most theorists is that all who are not full-fledged members of the best religion fail to get the cure. In the terms explained above, a religion claims to have a diagnosis section 1 above. That way you do not get to know how someone does these things in their family for example. Globalisation and the movement of labour are rendering workplaces in both developed Australia, Singapore and developing Brazil, Malaysia economies diverse. As argued by Biesta education functions in three different domains: qualification , socialization and subjectification. The questions which were used probed general themes about learning, worldviews and teaching so the pupils were given space to themselves articulate what they thought was important. One conclusion might be that certain individuals rationalise their unethical behaviours as a result of external pressure to conform.
