Since the rise and growth of secularization, the place of God and religion is becoming increasingly problematic in our Western culture. But what is the alternative to its Christian heritage? Humanism puts "man" at the center of everything, but can you "believe in man" just as much as you can believe in God? Is this secular worldview really rational, based on science, consistent, and durable? And above all, does our society become more humane because of it? Can you simply obliterate God from our culture and values without these collapsing like a pudding? Secular humanism has always been extremely critical of the church--and in itself that is allowed--but what if we judge and measure it with the same criteria?
Author Biography
Ignace Demaerel (1961) was born in Brussels, Belgium. He studied philosophy at the Catholic University of Leuven, and Protestant Theology in Brussels. He is married, has four children, one foster son, and four grandchildren. In addition to teaching religion at school, he is a pastor in Brussels. He has written many articles and two brochures ("The Spiritual Climate of Belgium" and "Father, Make Us One"), and he has published four books in Dutch (on prayer, the person of Jesus, bread and wine, and now on humanism). Since 2012 he has also been a columnist/opinion writer for the Flemish magazine Knack.be. The "95 Theses on Humanism" is the first book to be translated into English.
