Humanism is a convenient label for three distinct but overlapping worldviews. All three are congenial to developing a lifestance of values, a sense of one’s place in the world, and an orientation for one’s life through meaningful practices and activities. Humanism is open for anyone’s life journey, although in practice humanism is the principal alternative to religiously pious paths.
