WorldShift Council – Commentary and Analysis of the proceedings of the G-20 En bref - Qui sommes nous ? - Aspen France JM. Debrat - MF. Nelly L’Institut Aspen est une association de la loi de 1901, reconnue d’intérêt général, non partisane et à but non lucratif. Les programmes d’Aspen couvrent trois grands domaines thématiques : la compréhension de la mondialisation, des contraintes et des opportunités qui en résultent ; la prise de conscience des avancées scientifiques en cours dans de nombreux domaines, des promesses et des risques associés et des dilemmes qu’elles posent aux dirigeants ; l’aggiornamento du modèle économique, politique et social français. L’Institut Aspen France est présidé par Jean-Pierre Jouyet, président de l’Autorité des Marchés Financiers. J.Attali -J. Aspen, c’est une méthode, fondée sur le dialogue, l’écoute, l’échange d’expériences ; ce sont des valeurs, l’héritage de l’humanisme et des Lumières ; c’est enfin un travail tourné vers le leadership, vers ceux qui – puissants ou humbles – s’efforcent de prendre l’initiative, penser différemment, entraîner les autres.

Why Humanists Need to Make the Shift to Post-Atheism I’m getting increasingly annoyed by all the anti-religious propaganda that litters my Facebook newsfeed. Look, as a fellow humanist and atheist, I get it. Organized religion is a problem on so many levels that I don’t even know where to begin. Who are you speaking to? It’s time to put these toys away and consider the bigger picture. The intellectual battle against religion has already been won — and a strong case can be made that the victory came at the time of the Enlightenment. For those of you who have been part of organized religion, you know how hard it is to break free. Instead, what I’d rather see are more focused efforts on understanding how and why religion continues to spread, and what kinds of interventions and approaches are most effective at helping individuals move past it. In addition, we need to figure out the best way to pull religious people out of their situation. Humanism is about the betterment of all humanity and the contemplation of what it is we wish to become.
