Staff sgt. Darren . Durham Schweinfurt Germany to our reapers let us know humanist philosophy the writer of the a be our guest article a the humanism Side oct. 9 seemed shocked amazed and almost offended that an organization could exist in America to support humanism. The fact of the matter is that organizations to support humanism and atheism have existed from the Day the first religion was founded. I could write reams about the Beauty elegance simplicity and truth of philosophy of humanism. Instead i will limit myself to addressing a Cou pie of the authors misconceptions. Humanism a philosophy is based on love of Mankind something most religions preach but Seldom practice. I have read the humanist manifestos and studied the writings of humanists. I can to say that i agree with everything i read. I do know for certain it is not merely a philosophy of a do whatever you want. Humanists advocate strict accountability for those actions that harm others. For a Long time i was troubled by the inhumanity that Mankind inflicts upon itself. I kept asking myself Why god does no to Stop this insanity. I came to the conclusion that Mankind alone is responsible for creating its own problems and has the responsibility for solving those problems. Human beings Are guilty of atrocities and human beings arc struggling to prevent and Stop such atrocities. In other words we Are a Small we encourage our readers a especially those who have never submitted a letter a to write to us. Letters expressing readers viewpoints Are published Dally on this Page. All tetters must be signed and include address and Telephone number. Send to letters to the editor the stars and stripes unit 29480, Apo a 09211. Or fax country code 49 06155601-395, Dan 348-8395. We Reserve the right to edit letters for clarity length and taste. Insignificant speck of dust in a vast universe and god expects Mankind to solve its own problems. It is this that is the driving Force behind the philosophy of humanism. While atheism is a principal Tenet of the american humanist association not All humanists Are atheists and not All atheists Are humanists. Master sgt Michael Liston Cilc Skirchen German Lack of my caring i was involved in a head on Auto Accident on sept. 22.1 was alone in my car and was hit in my Lane by a car containing germans. I Felt As if my Chest was crushed and could not even get my breath Tor a while. I could not get out of the car because i Felt like fainting i was in so much pain. I was terrified and badly Fel the need to talk to an american. The germans were wonderful but its like wanting your own family when something happens. A a a. V a when the military police arrived he walked past with a clipboard. He never said a word of reassurance to me or expressed any concern for my Well being. He did a Good Job of securing my physical property. I do not know How Well he did on reporting the Accident As i am not allowed to see that a report.-. A a a Quot a a when i got out of the Hospital i went to see the Deputy to the Provost marshal to file a complaint against the my i discovered another my had been at the scene also but never made her presence known to me. I was told that there is a deficiency in training for an my at an Accident. No one needs training in being a human being and showing concern especially to a fellow countryman in a foreign country. Thelma c. Jones Vilseck German Good laugh for Perry while Reading your oct. 5 Issue i came across a rather humorous error. Not made by your staff though but made by defense Secretary William Perry. Looking closely at the photo on Page 2, it can be seen that the Soldier receiving his specialist tank is receiving it upside Down. I mean no disrespect to our defense Secretary. I just Hope that he is Able to look Back and laugh about it. Spec.
