Thor asked you to expand on this, and I will too.
What is liberal humanism incapable/insufficient of replacing?
Perhaps a link to a previous thread would be sufficient, I don't count myself as among "everyone."
I (think I) understand and agree with your position regarding the importance of social constructs for individuals to orient themselves and communities to regulate themselves - but I don't understand your criticism of liberal humanism.
Is it reactive and insufficient as a worldview? (Like feminism or anti-theism)
Is it too limited as a worldview, like emergency generators in a hospital, that need to quickly enhanced to be reliable?
Liberal humanism, to me, is self-evident to the extent it's ubiquitous. Maybe I'm not appreciating your use of the phrase. Perhaps I could get a link to a previous thread on the topic - I'm not among the crowd that is familiar with the nuances of your stance.
