Path to Enlightened Humanism: The Works of Dr Ben Grobbelaar

Viac o knihe

Each one of us has a choice. We can blindly accept the customs, moral codes, political philosophy, and the religious beliefs of the society into which we are born or we can critically examine the perceptions and beliefs of one's own society, or one's own group, which in the first instance would be responsible for conditioning one's personal beliefs and perceptions. This is what philosophy is all about. It identifies the fundamental principles on which decisions of this nature are based, and it exposes the individual to other points of view. Most people elect the former course of action, based not on conscious decisions, but because of the incredibly powerful influence of environmental conditioning. Developing a broader understanding of evolution, knowledge, religion, science, philosophy and politics opens a pathway to enlightenment.
