(a) The two most urgent aims of Humanity should be to unify our species enough to confine interstate and interfaith wars and conflicts to history and to greatly reduce the harm being done to our planet by human overactivity. These aims would be considerably more likely to be achieved without the divisions and hate brought about by religious differences, the distractions of following religious thought and the false ideas of causation of environmental events inspired by some religious belief.
(b) The existence of a Creator of Everything who is also a cosmic-transgalactic superintelligence, called God, is extremely unlikely. To say that 'God created the universe and that God has always existed' is even more fantastic than to say 'life has always existed'. The whole idea of God is archaic and out of touch with modern scientific knowledge. Furthermore, most or all of humankind will disbelieve in a personal God eventually, should our species survive long enough into the future for such a paradigm shift to happen.
(c) All plant, animal and human life evolved over thousands of millions of years from the first microscopic life that appeared on Earth. The statistical odds against the unaided forming of the first reproducing organisms are so high that it is likely that this event occurred only once, at one unique time in Earth's history and that no other life exists anywhere else in the Universe. Human intelligence could quite possibly be the only thinking, reasoning intelligence to exist anywhere in the Universe.
(d) As Earthists, we nurture the utmost respect for all of Nature. This includes our own bodies, which are also part of Nature. Most modern people eat a poorly balanced diet consisting mostly of processed food, which itself has been manufactured from produce grown on impoverished soils and sprayed with chemicals. Knowledge of the importance of a natural and healthy diet should be offered to everyone from an early age. To change to a more health promoting diet, the following considerations should be taken into account: Food should be rich in antioxidants. Food should be grown naturally without the use of chemical herbicides, pesticides or soil depleting chemical fertilizers. At least 40% of the daily human food intake should be of raw vegetables and fruit in order to obtain enough natural enzymes for good health . A good balance of all necessary nutrients should be contained in the diet. Foods should be chosen to ensure a slightly alkaline pH balance in the body since an acidic pH balance will often lead to a compromised level of health. By keeping ourselves naturally healthy, we can maintain a higher standard of biological and emotional living. We can also avoid dependency on medication which is costly and can lead to harmful side effects, can cause additional health problems and often only subverts the symptoms of the initial illness.
(e) All current economic systems are corrupt, wasteful, unfair, and have hidden agendas. They are not conducive to widespread human happiness and are helping to destroy our planet. Human happiness is greatly dependant on the giving and receiving of love and on contact and relations with other people. It also rests stongly on the freedom of expression, on freedom to follow one's own interests, on a good balance between work and play, and on health and adequate physical comforts. A new system is needed which focuses not on keeping the majority of people busy in order to buy products or services that they often don't really need (and thus funding the rich and elite and wrecking our planet), but to streamline the efficiency of delivering only what populations do really need. This could obviously reduce unnecessary consumerism and enable personal work to be kept to a minimum so that growth to fully integrated self-dependent and happy individuals can be fully focused on.
