The day is November 24, 2009.

From the HUUmanists email list:

Remember that today is a holy day to Humanists, Unitarian Universalists, and all others who hold sacred our rapidly increasing knowledge of our own precious human nature, and especially its relation to the rest of the universe.  One hundred fifty years ago today, on November 24, 1859, Charles Darwin opened the gates of heaven with his publication of "On the Origin of Species by Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life," and suddenly a great light shone down upon us all.  Our understanding of ourselves has grown rapidly ever since, is growing today, and will continue to grow forever.  Humanity will never be the same again.
David Schafer

Amen and hallelujah!
Phil

Spinoza was born on this day in 1632. 
Happy Birthday to you, Spinoza.  Another reason for a Humanist celebration.
Gordon Gamm

Picture
Spinoza is best known for his Ethics, a monumental work that presents an ethical vision unfolding out of a monistic metaphysics in which God and Nature are identified. God is no longer the transcendent creator of the universe who rules it via providence, but Nature itself, understood as an infinite, necessary, and fully deterministic system of which humans are a part. Humans find happiness only through a rational understanding of this system and their place within it.

今日大日子!《物種起源》出版;史賓諾沙出生

十一月廿四日是大日子!

UU人文主義電郵列表有人寫道:

今天是所有認為人類知識增長是神聖的人的聖日。一百五十年前的今天,達爾文出版《物種起源》,為人類打開天堂之門,知識的大光突然普照世人。自此,人類對自己的認識突飛猛進;人類從此不再一樣。

阿門!哈利路亞!

史賓諾沙於一六三二年的今天出生。生日快樂,史賓諾沙。這是另一件值得人文主義者慶賀的事件。

(史賓諾沙提出一元論,即神與自然原為一。神不再是一超越者,創造並保守宇宙,而是自然本身,無限而必然,而人是其中的一份子。)
