Interesting how you feel the need to ridicule even my name.

It is dissapointing how deliberately offensive your reply is, and how predictable.

In otherwords, Beskar is known as a "Secular Humanist".
I prefer my term, I think it's more accurate, and it has the advantage of being explicit. You do after all, do you not, seek to create the perfect world society through human affort and to utterly remove the influence of religion?

While its set-up as the atheist bogeyman, it is the position where by Beskar rejects the supernatural invisible men, dusty tomes and dogma from the middle ages, instead preferring reason, ethics, and justice.
This is a typical atheist slander, where "reason ethics and justice" are claimed to be opposed to religion. This is not so, quite the opposite; totally the opposite in fact. "Reason, ethics and justice", as concepts flourished in the mediaeval period as much, if not more, than the Renaissance or Enlightenment.

Using these tenets to form a basis of ethic principles which pretty much sum-up "Treat other people as you would like to be treated yourself."

As for the last part, Beskar said nothing about ignoring any democratic process.
Pretty weak principles really, you should try harder. I believe you can try harder.

Here are my principles:

1. All life is sacred.

2. It must always be Good which is striven for, and Evil that is resisted.

3. All Law must embody Good, not Evil, and be obeyed for that reason.

4. The use of violence is always wrong.

5. All people are created equal and have the same right to Freedom and Safety.

6. The strong should use their strength to defend the weak, not the enact tyranny.

7. No one person should force their will upon another person by any means.
