Why should it have more or other apriori value than any other religion? I don't see it.
my question goes to the atheists.

Please rephrase the question. I'm not sure what you mean by "value in humanism."

hi ROGUEHi Medusa:2wave:
Your question is rather non nonsensical.
I think it demonstrates a lack of understanding for the meaning of 'atheism'. So before answering could you please define 'atheism' to make sure we are discussing the same thing?
Lets not pretend to misunderstand my posts.we all know what atheism and humanism mean
hi ROGUE
I know what it means and thats why I dont want to read ' its not set of rules ' nonsense.any fascist can be atheist (positive or negative ) ,any communist or any conservative or any gay or hetero can be atheist.now lets try to understand what any atheistic philosophie can give to the society.but I can say I know religions were derived from morality .THATS FACT

As for morality; you can derive altruism etc as a logical benefit. Morality is not rooted in religion.
"atheism" is a neutral term. It doesn't imply anything about humanism or suggest any particular morality. In practice it tends to mean "not religious", especially "not Christian". For some it means "anti-religious", but not necessarily.
I'd say that most atheists are humanists in that they attach primary importance to human matters and tend to be optimistic about human nature, emphasize common needs, and see intrinsic value in people.
Well, that's because there are benefits to a certain degree of selfishness and self-centeredness. Otherwise you would give all of your money to the poor and give your house to the homeless.You can also derive selfishness and self-centeredness as a logical benefit with equal facility.
The most ordinary and every day form of morality is rooted in the need for socialization and society. The moral traditions that evolve out of that need tend to be couched in religious terms.

Atheism, as a philosophy, in my opinion, is best summed up by someone like Ayn Rand.

Religions were derived from primitive people who believed in volcano and thunder gods, etc.hi ROGUE
