Of course it is "inimical" if you can extrapolate. Of course LOTS of people can't which is WHY you have exterminations of the "other" all the time and these exterminations always use as their basis some weird form of "belief". It isn't rationality and reasonability that lays the groundwork for a massacre or a holocaust.

You can value humanity because you value yourself- you don't need morality or God- you only need a strong sense of self preservation. Of course- as we know from psychology- lots of people DON'T value themselves- and they certainly don't value humanity. Oddly enough all the agnostics I've met value humanity greatly. In FACT most of them are even humanists. Godists aren't nearly as nice (imo).
