Freddy, Thanks for the link to the Humanist Manifesto humanist.net

I have heard of it but have never read it before. What is your opinion of it? I believe that there is a need for a godless moral code but I'm not sure if I agree with this one. I am having trouble with article 14 and would like to see it more fully explained. I agree with most of the rest.

FOURTEENTH: The humanists are firmly convinced that existing acquisitive and profit-motivated society has shown itself to be inadequate and that a radical change in methods, controls, and motives must be instituted. A socialized and cooperative economic order must be established to the end that the equitable distri- bution of the means of life be possible. The goal of humanism is a free and universal society in which people voluntarily and intelligently cooperate for the common good. Humanists demand a shared life in a shared world.

Any comments Father Terrence?
