Now, this might be the most radical topic to start blogging about. Earlier, the title was Scientism but I have changed it to Logicism for reasons described in a comment. The word scientism was perhaps first coined by Carl Sagan. It suited my need best to give a name to the collective set of ideas and opinions that I have developed over time. I am writing down some of its commandments which deems fit to me. Surely, I don’t intend to write down all of them at one stretch but will be building it brick by brick. I believe that I follow this religion. You are free to make your own opinions about my views, follow or not follow it, and even write to me your comments (or suggest some new commandments). The commandments go like this:
1) Every person’s first duty is towards this human race. Nations, religion, caste, creed, family and gender – all come after that. None of our actions should be towards retro-development of human race. It being said, this doesn’t imply that we humans have a right to exploit other species for our undue benefit. The subspecies Homo Sapiens sapiens, as a whole must act like an elder brother taking care of all its brethren species. However, when it comes to the very existence of human species itself, we should leave no stone upturned to safeguard that, even at the cost of some other creatures.
