Harari's Humanist Horror Story: Why History Matters.

ATHEIST SOCIETY - Melbourne, Australia - Online.

Some of us are participating in their online event.

Leslie Allan (Rational Realm) will present the topic and lead the discussion.

"HARARI'S HUMANIST HORROR STORY:
- WHY HISTORY MATTERS."

~ You may have been enthralled with Harari’s sweeping history of humankind in his Sapiens and Homo Deus. But even an acclaimed best-selling author can get the story terribly wrong—and in ways that do real damage to reputations. In this talk, Leslie Allan subjects Harari’s retelling of humanist history to critical scrutiny.

Did humanism really fracture into three warring sects, giving us Stalin’s gulags, Hitler’s Holocaust and rapacious capitalism? Leslie disentangles Harari's many confusions and shows what the historical record actually tells us about humanism and its legacy.

This talk will be of particular interest to atheists, agnostics and other non-believers, as it challenges Harari’s claim that abandoning belief in God historically led humanity to make a god of Homo sapiens. ~
