Guess the blank...

"XXXXX is the religion of humanity;
it embraces the affairs of this world;
it is interested in everything that touches the welfare of a sentient being;
it advocates attention to the particular planet on which we happen to live;
it means that each individual counts for something;
it is a declaration of intellectual independence;
it means the pew is superior to the pulpit, that those who bear the burdens shall have the profits and that they who fill the purse shall hold the strings.

It is a protest against ecclesiastical tyranny, against being a serf, subject or slave of any phantom, or of the priest of any phantom.

It is a protest against wasting this life for the sake of one we know not of. It proposes to let the gods take care of themselves. It means living for ourselves and each other; for the present instead of the past, for this world instead of another.

It is striving to do away with violence and vice, with ignorance, poverty and disease."

Interestingly, the above quote comes from http://www.secularism.org.uk/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=12&It....

There's actually quite a lot in there that I agree with. In fact, if you replaced the XXX's with "Christianity" instead of "Secularism", would anyone object to anything in the above quote?
