Description
The Humanist Principle: Compassion and Tolerance brings together two prominent thinkers to explore pressing questions about science, religion, ethics, and humanism. Felix Unger and Daisaku Ikeda discuss the potential for common ground between different fields of learning, examine the implications of genetic engineering, and consider the need for science to develop a proper ethical dimension. Their exchange is characterized by sensitivity, respect, and a deep commitment to cultivating dialogue as a means of promoting toleration and peace. The participants demonstrate a passion for exploring complex issues in a constructive and civil manner, shedding light on the opportunities and pitfalls that arise from the intersection of science, religion, and ethics. This thought-provoking book offers valuable insights into the humanist principle and its relevance to our world today.
