You believe in the potential for human beings to achieve a harmonious and ethical society through reason, empathy, and self-improvement.
Humanism is a political ideology that emphasizes the value and agency of human beings, individually and collectively. It is a democratic and ethical life stance that affirms that human beings have the right and responsibility to give meaning and shape to their own lives. Humanism stands for the building of a more humane society through an ethic based on human and other natural values in the spirit of reason and free inquiry through human capabilities. It is not theistic, and it does not accept supernatural views of reality.
The roots of humanism can be traced back to ancient Greece…

What steps can we take to ensure that technology and innovation serve to unify rather than divide us?
We can ensure that the tech that we use in AI doesn't turn against us by NOT CREATING MORE AI!
@9JMKTH23mos3MO
While technology could easily be turned against a group or manipulated, it shouldn't stop to the progression and improvement of tech. Non-learning AI will inherently never be able to turn against us by design. Why limit something that can help?
@9JKVJZL4mos4MO
Place restrictions/limitations on them. Not let them be used totally for one or more things, but a useful second hand option when needed.
@9JKVFKSRepublican4mos4MO
Humans are greedy and systems need to be in place to control how we act.
@9JKV3W2Republican4mos4MO
Keep it from ever entering the government unless it is aiding a system like the IRS
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
Why might it be essential to understand different historical viewpoints to build a more ethical future?
@9KTBHMB 2mos2MO
That way everyone can be heard and represented in their communities
@9KSLFGS2mos2MO
It might be important because it helps us not just jump into a conclusion where this is what we believe and not what happened, to understand different viewpoint of things helps us have our own opinion.
@9KSGHYX2mos2MO
You can look back at the decisions of politicians in the past and learn from their mistakes

If you were to mentor a younger student, what lessons about positive social behavior would you emphasize?
@9KKLSTW2mos2MO
Everyone should be treated equally and the same, no matter their color, language, ethnicity, etc.
@9KKL89D2mos2MO
I would emphasize all the lessons about humanism and let my students agree witch one they would like to be more informed about.
@9KKLCVRWomen’s Equality2mos2MO
Understanding, research, collaboration, compromise, standing up for yourself and others when safety or rights are in jeopardy. Always remaining level-headed, educated, and open.
To see people as equal at all costs even if you disagree.

When has a simple act of kindness from a stranger made a difference in your day, and what did it teach you about humanity?
@9JGZY4L4mos4MO
I've seen many acts of humanity as well as some inhumane acts.
@9JH24QCIndependent4mos4MO
a lady gave me a nice note in the drive through. some of my co workers got one too. she was giving out simple compliments to random people.
@9JH26SY4mos4MO
A simple act of kindness can go a long way and it taught me that thee is still good in the world.
@9JH27WZ4mos4MO
simple acts of kindness can make a person day anyone and everyone should be kind to all you never know what a person is going through.

In what ways could education systems evolve to better reflect the principles of humanism?
@9L2LXJD2mos2MO
yes, I belive that being a human is more important than anything else. Life is about living it not about how much money you earn
@9L2LT7WWomen’s Equality2mos2MO
to tech the people while they in school that the world is not as good as it seems
@9L2LPSM2mos2MO
creating more equal and effective opportunity for colored people since a opportunity for colored vs non colored are at different levels
@9L2LYQ22mos2MO
The education systems could teach more life based experiences to teach the importance of being kind, or showing humanism.
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
What change would you most like to see in the world, and how can we achieve it through collective action?
@9KKLSTW2mos2MO
I would like to change gun laws because of the violence it brings.
People see each other as equal it needs to be settled in generation after generation.
@9KKLCVRWomen’s Equality2mos2MO
Acceptance and understanding is shockingly scarce. We educate ourselves and listen and there we see the greatest increase in wellbeing. Whether it's uncomfortable or not, we exist in a world of more than ourselves, and we have to learn how to lift us all up together as a collective.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
Can you give an example of a personal sacrifice you've made for the greater good that resulted in unexpected personal growth?
@9JGZWZR4mos4MO
giving things that make you happy for other people to thrive can make you feel better
@9JH24B2Women’s Equality4mos4MO
Training in humanism must explicitly address a physician's self-image to ensure that physicians, in training and beyond, learn how to care
@9JH2DKJ4mos4MO
I gave up the celebration of my most recent birthday to attend my Great Grandmothers birthday. I learned sometimes it is better to celebrate other than myself
@9JH25WB4mos4MO
Giving up food, paying for peoples meals. Helping my friends by giving them whatever food I had on me to keep them from going hungry ever. And anyone who asks, never had to be just a friend.

What does 'freedom to shape one's own life' mean to you and in what ways are you utilizing this freedom?
@9JHXPNG4mos4MO
The freedom to shape one's own life means to me that we each are entitled to the ability to choose our path in life and live how one desires.
@9JHXMSHRepublican 4mos4MO
It means to pursue what you feel a calling to or aid in finding that calling. I'm unable to utilize it to its full potential. The education system desperately needs reform. In education overall, the cost, and the methods.
@9JHXH44Peace and Freedom4mos4MO
Freedom means to hae rights. I am utilizing this freedom by voting.

What role does forgiveness play in your life and how can it impact societal well-being?
@9KKMP7Q2mos2MO
It can lead to emotional healing, improved relationships, and better overall well-being.
@9KKKYCF2mos2MO
I believe it is important to forgive because revenge only leaves everyone hurt.
@9KKKQ7X2mos2MO
Forgiveness is always an option, especially when someone hasn't done something that horrible. However, if someone does something unspeakable then forgiveness shouldn't be an option.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
How can learning about different cultures and histories influence our ethics and values today?
@9HMDM285mos5MO
Learning about different cultures and histories influences our ethic and values today because we learn from them and see what we can change about ours.
@9HMDW9P5mos5MO
we can (and should) be taking certain ideals from other cultures and attempt to understand them from a different perspective than the enclosed one we all are in right now. and in doing this an individual can have more control as there how there life is shaped.
@9HMDGDM5mos5MO
it can make our views less biased and make everyone potentially more equal
@9HMDJ7QRepublican5mos5MO
Helps us be aware and understanding of other countries
