Being aware that we live in a new Era is the starting point of all our actions.
The world is a creation of men; the world is taking part in what has already been created. To us, new humanism means uniting the creative act and the Created.
Upon birth, every human being is given the possibility to partake in the creative act. It’s in his nature, it is a question of genetics.
Man’s creative act, once completed, gives him an interior well being: this is the ultimate proof which demonstrates the exhistence of humanism, … this is humanism.
However, men are required to be integrated with their time and with their social and technological age.
Every humanism needs a specific and appropriate scale of values to survive, and that is because it originates and develops in that specific time.
However, history has taught us that every humanism has a few unchanging principles which repeat and perpetuate themselves.
One of them, the most important one, is this: men, finite beings (that is, each and every one of us) under a visible sky, the one we can see with our own eyes, can – with their will and spiritual force – enter the infinite. The infinite is a utopia that becomes reality and awareness of the existence of other skies, the invisible skies, because we can perceive their physical or technological horizon with the help of the logic that governs the spirit: this way men, after this extraordinary journey of transformation, put themselves into being and can get to being a part of the infinite… of God.
So the new humanism is participation in the creation of matter and of the world; it is the quest for knowledge as a model with which the cosmos is created; it is the scheme of creation of the macro cosmos, which repeats itself in the creation of the micro cosmos. Wisdom is its balance.
Knowledge is the model, wisdom is the balance.
This is the philosophical principle, both ermeneutical and evolved, of God who becomes a man and of men who become God: the real starting point of EcoBioHumanism, our proposal for a new humanism.
By adding the ECO suffix to the word humanism, we want to guarantee the presence of men’s creative act, harmony and the balance of the biosphere through the mandatory application of the systemic principle, which is guaranteed by the principle of precaution (that is, every creation is linked to all the others, and intervening on one of them means intervening on all the others as well). ECO also mean man’s total freedom to choose his own genealogic habitat and, more importantly, his own home.
By adding the BIO suffix to the word humanism, we want to guarantee that both natural BIOS (that is, the elements of genetics and microphysics) and artificial BIOS (that is, the elements of computer science and quantum physics) are co-modified and co-generated following the principle theorized by philosopher Denis de Rougemont, the principle of in-sertion and con-sertion, in a continuous creation of and creation by men, without ever intervening against one’s own or other people’s nature.
The ECO and BIO factors have the specific function of making this new humanism a creative one, that is of making it suitable for elevating men in the process and transformation between finite and infinite being.The affirmation of EcoBioHumanism will bring the New World to its second Renaissance.
Let’s create a civilization in which Love, Peace, Art and Beauty will limit the interference of avidity and egocentrism on principles, rules and norms.
