A Humanist Code of Ethics




A Humanist Code of Ethics:
Do no harm to the earth, she is your mother.
Being is more important than having.
Never promote yourself at another's expense.
Hold life sacred; treat it with reverence.
Allow each person the digity of his or her labor.
Open your home to the wayfarer.
Be ready to receive your deepest dreams;
sometimes they are the speech of unblighted conscience.
Always make restitutions to the ones you have harmed.
Never think less of yourself than you are.
Never think that you are more than another.
-Arthur Dobrin

'Let your inner sincerity,
compassion and love
melt the hearts of those
who are stubborn to reason,
dogmatic and immersed in acts
of extreme loathing.
This is the way to create
transformations in the societies
you are a part of ...' (R128)
