Letras Miúdas

Uns anos atrás eu fiquei toda emocionada com o discurso do Joss Whedon no Equality Now. Agora caiu no YouTube um trecho do discurso da última sexta-feira em Harvard, com o Whedon recebendo o Outstanding Lifetime Achievement Award in Cultural Humanism.

No discurso, o Joss divide suas boas ideias como o “So You Think You Can Pope” ou porque a Terra Santa deveria ser mudada para a Jamaica.

No final, um pouco sobre o nosso problema não ser a fé.

The enemy of humanism is not faith. The enemy of humanism is hate, is fear, is ignorance, is the darker part of man that is in every humanist, every person in the world. That is the thing we have to fight. Faith is something we have to embrace. Faith in God means believing, absolutely, in something with no proof whatsoever. Faith in humanity means believing, absolutely, in something with a huge amount of proof to the contrary. We are the true believers.
