A HUMANIST CIVILIZATION- Supreme Ambition
“A Humanist civilization is one in which the principles of the Humanist philosophy are dominant and find practical embodiment in laws, institutions, economics, culture, and indeed all the more significant aspects of individual and social life”
Ref: THE PHILOSOPHY OF HUMANISM CORLISS LAMONT EIGHTH EDITION, REVISED 1997 P.298

In Very Easy Words
I defend civilization against savagery, primitiveness and barbarism.
When we claim that civilization has fallen, it is implied, consciously or unconsciously, that the people of civilization have fallen, which is humanly and morally unacceptable.
Author
PREAMBLE
Since the beginning of existence Homo Existence and humans have spoken and written and lived the farce of existence that reflected human conflicts and wars with knife and bullets and weapons of mass destruction and they still talk about war, victory, defeat and peace, but why did they not care about fighting and defeating death and thinking about eternity and this last point is the focus of the Met-Civilization thinking
About achievements of West Civilization and the rise of new one, assuming immortality, briefly point this is eternal victory of Reason and Rational power.
This is an ambrella of the crutial point of my book.
NOTE
I say first of all, I am not concerned in my book with the political aspect of the West, which is polluted by Colonialism, Centralization, Violence, Exploitation, Racism, Egocentrism and Oppression of weak peoples and all that has been raised and is still being raised in the countries of the world against what they call the piracy of the polluted West and the enslavement of the weak, etc.
But the intellectual and cultural elites, orientalists and other currents were and still are opposing prejudices and exploiting political systems and defending human consciousness and awareness.
My admiration is the creative one who has changed and continues to change the direction of World and this is the idea of the sanctity of the existence, freedom, loftiness(Transcend) of Reason or the power of the rational
My fascination of the West mind is the themes of power of Rational, passion of Enlightenment and, understanding meaning
and life wisdom, this in one word is the Triumph of civilization against Barbarism.
In the fire of war, I defend civilization itself and life wisdom, this in one word is the Triumph of civilization against Barbarism. In the fire of war, I defend civilization itself
When I speak of civilization and the West, I transcend the populist language and the language of everyday or prejudiced politics#
Author
# The French sociologist’s book can be found in my note, 2005 : Culture et Barbarie Europeenne, Paris, Bayard.

How the civilization of the West transformed the weight of the rigid world into existence?
Civilization is not a lost cause, it is the destination of man and power
Each civilization is as much a product of underlying or human subconscious or it makes forever
The world today, after living the victory of Enlightenment, lives today, not the fall of civilization, but experiencing the victory of civilization, and the creativity of the West takes place in the manufacture of man and life, or their fabrication in a new creation, I mean the dream of Immortality. This last picture of New West Civilization, see later
If the West collapse, the (Russian-Chinese) world will have no meaning and tomorrow’s failed world will be subject to totalitarian oppressive regimes. The World of tomorrow(may) live by bread alone.

Civilization is the hugh Culture or (Kultur)# or the various types of knowledge and its development

# # Kultur, from Germanic Language means Culture and Civilization
Civilization has many and varied definitions of characteristics according to historians and anthropologists, especially in the material and human structures of civilization, which are worthy of attention, but I am interested here only with the intellectual and cultural definition and the pattern of thinking. The contemporary global civilization with a Western basis is in its general description as culture, thought, mind and technology.
Religion does not create civilization, but guides people to faith and a righteous life, and focuses on building temples, churches, places of worship, and the life of the soul, drawing the features of the sanctuary
In other word Religion creates a pattern of life different from the civilized way known in the terms of the human sciences or historians of the history of civilizations
INTRODUCTION
The first impulse for the writing of this book come from Anxiety after the Russian invasion of Ukraine-24-Feb 2022- and the possibility of Russia’s victory with the Chinese regime revitalized and consequently the attempt of the victors over the West to destroy Western civilization by installing the totalitarian political system that is repressive by the nature of its formation, erasing the free and creative thought that is at the origin of the formation of civilization since the beginnings of the history of civilizations all the way to the civilization of the West Contemporary
The Reason # is Tool and Technic

# Reason is the capacity of consciously applying logic by drawing conclusions from new or existing information, with the aim of seeking the truth. [1][2] It is closely [ how? ] associated with such characteristically human activities as philosophy, science, language, mathematics, and art, and is normally considered to be a distinguishing ability possessed by humans. [3] Reason is sometimes referred to as rationality
In contrast to the use of “reason” as an abstract noun , a reason is a consideration given which either explains or justifies events, phenomena, or behavior . [8] Reasons justify decisions, reasons support explanations of natural phenomena; reasons can be given to explain the actions (conduct) of individuals. Ref Wikipedia (Net-Google)
But as the philosopher (Kant) hypothetically reads our claims of rationality, he shouted loudly, demanding that the allegations be stopped
Fallacious reasoning
Today we use the Reason tool
“Flawed reasoning in arguments is known as fallacious reasoning . Bad reasoning within arguments can be because it commits either a formal fallacy or an informal fallacy .
Formal fallacies occur when there is a problem with the form, or structure, of the argument. The word “formal” refers to this link to the form of the argument. An argument that contains a formal fallacy will always be invalid.
An informal fallacy is an error in reasoning that occurs due to a problem with the content , rather than mere structure , of the argument” Ibid
In history and today there are countless examples of using reason to justify our actions
The ancient imperialists justified by reason that they want to (prepare the backward peoples and the white European man is entrusted with the matter (with reason) because life does not continue with savagery and today the Russian regime attacked a neighboring country (Ukraine 24 Feb 2022 with (argument) that the neighbor threatens the Russian state through its alliance with (the West) Her thousand years of history and existence
With my great appreciation for what was mentioned in philosophical books and on the net of discreet writings about Reason and since the French Descartes until today, I see the mind today in a different visi
