SUMMARY:The Suncoast Humanist Society March Meetup
DESCRIPTION:The Suncoast Humanist Society Meetup\n\nOur Program for Saturda
 y\, March 7th ... \nMaking Humanism a Living Philosophy for Everyday Life \
 n\n          As our world undergoes tremendous changes in its politics\, ec
 onomy\, and the relationship between humanity and the natural world\, we as
  a society are moving gradually\, but inevitably toward a new synthesis in 
 our attitude and thinking about life.  Like every great moment in human exp
 erience\, this change is no sudden entry upon the stage of history\, but is
  an idea voiced once and yet again over the course of many thousands of yea
 rs.   From the writings of the first scientists\, mathematicians and pre-so
 cratic philosophers\, and reverberating through the literature\, insights a
 nd discoveries in our own time\, the Humanist theme has accompanied the eme
 rgence of the fully developed person.  But only in the last hundred years o
 f so\, has that theme been adopted explicitly  in the form of organized Hum
 anism as we find it today.  The Freethought tradition is the first springbo
 ard for this organization\, but other paths have also converged.  Themes of
  empathy\, sympathy\, liberation and enlightenment have grown from a fierce
  passion for political liberty and freedom from theological oppression. \n 
         So what do we do now?  On the base of such developments\, how do we
  bring all humankind to the recognition of its own inherent freedom\, and o
 ur individual potentials for creative living?  In particular\, how do we as
  an organized group meet these challanges?  Lets talk about it.       JP\n\
