humánista

A humanista is a person who advocates or believes in humanism. Humanism is a philosophical and ethical stance that emphasizes the value and agency of human beings, individually and collectively. It typically involves a strong commitment to reason, ethics, and social justice, and often rejects supernatural or divine explanations. Humanists generally believe that humans are capable of living ethical lives and finding meaning in life through their own actions and endeavors. This can include a focus on human welfare, personal growth, and the pursuit of knowledge.

The term "humanista" can refer to various forms of humanism, including secular humanism, which strictly adheres to a non-religious worldview, and religious humanism, which integrates humanist principles with a belief in a higher power or spiritual practices. Historically, humanism emerged during the Renaissance, emphasizing classical learning and human potential. In contemporary usage, a humanista is someone who prioritizes human well-being, rational thought, and a concern for the common good, often advocating for policies and social structures that support these values. They may be involved in social activism, education, or advocacy for human rights. The core of their belief system lies in the inherent worth and dignity of every individual.
