Evolution as religion
In his book The World’s Living Religions, Archie Bahm dedicates Chapter 14 to Humanism. “Are there any beliefs common to the doctrines of all those who call themselves ‘Humanists’? First, regarding the universe, Humanists are naturalistic. The universe is natural. It acts in accordance with its own nature and is not influenced by anything outside it. The universe includes everything, so there can be nothing external to it to influence it. It is self-contained, self-sufficient, and self-caused…” (p. 336). This is a religious position, taking a stance about the nature of God. The chapter makes clear the author’s conclusion that humanism is religion, and that like all great religions, it has a creation myth, based on Darwinism. This is not a fluke. Evolution is coming more and more out of the closet with its religious agenda, as evidenced by Evolution Ashram.
