| | Renaissance -- Printing and Thinking |
| | 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. | | | The secular, humanist idea held that the church should not rule civic matters, but should guide only spiritual matters. | | | 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. |

| | It began with his visit to Poland in 1979, symbolizing and embodying a spiritual humanism that was the antithesis of the soulless materialism and decay of late Marxist-Leninism. | | | Under the benign and deeply humane vision of this pope, the power of faith led to the liberation of half a continent. | | | As millions gathered to hear him and worship with him, they began to feel their own power and to find the institutional structure -- the vibrant Polish church -- around which to mobilize. |

| | Can Public Schools Be Religiously Neutral? |

| | Existentialism does appear to stimulate spiritual curiosity and concern among college students, but it has to be admittedly that a large percentage of them arrive at confusing arguments against the validity and importance of the teachings of the Christian church. | | | The traditional Christian position states that belief in the Bible as the revealed Word of God is, first, a statement, not about human existence in a contemporary situation, but an objective knowledge of truth given by God existing in and of itself. | | | Christian existentialism is an obvious defense against the secularization of faith. |

| | Secular humanism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | By the 1970s the term was embraced by humanists who, although critical of religion in its various guises, were deliberately non-religious, as opposed to anti-religious, which means that it has nothing to do with spiritual, religious, or ecclesiastical doctrines, beliefs, or power structures. | | | Secular humanism is distinguished from the broader category of humanism in that the secular humanist prefers free inquiry over dogmatic wisdom—upholding the scientific method for inquiry, while rejecting revealed knowledge and theistic morality, though not necessarily faith. | | | The largest humanist organisation in the world (relative to population) is Norway's Human-Etisk Forbund [1], which had over 69,000 members out of a population of around 4.6 million in 2004 [2], though this is partly attributable to a unique set of Church-State relations. |
