Give it five years and you can change the title to When Engineers were Nihilists. "The ironic fact here is that humanism, which began with Man’s being central, eventually had no real meaning for people."
Humanism replaces faith in God with faith in humans. It professed to free us from religion as we were told we don't need a God in order to make decisions. The fact that we never had a God to help us make decisions seems to go unnoticed.
It comes from a theologian/pastor who then goes on to talk about why God and the Bible are at the core of human dignity.
Colour me shocked that a pastor criticises a largely non-religious philosophy.
