Humanism vs. Faith in Humanity

The LiveJournal Blog on Humanism (http://community.livejournal.com/humanism/37601.html?view=234209#t234209) posted an article on Humanism versus Faith in Humanity.

I think Steiner misses the point - equality is not the same as being treated equal. He seems to get off on a minor wording about Humanism that he thinks implies humanists believe everyone to be equal. That really has nothing to do with Humanism; but, we do tend to believe that all should be treated with the same rights as Human Beings.

But, it was nice to see him catch a lot of flack in comments on the Blog :)
