Darwin's original full view of evolution reveals that caring, love, moral evolution, and education are the prime drivers of human evolution. Regardless of your belief system, this course will stimulate you to think about human nature in a whole new light. This examination of humanistic thought will shake your view of the basic driving forces behind a healthy socio-economic system, not to mention the shortcomings of the creationist view. The course will celebrate the bicentenary of Charles Darwin. It will appeal to those with an introductory knowledge of Humanism, but will also be accessible to newcomers. In-class discussion will be encouraged.
