Question

What is not something a humanist would believe about people? people are more than just observable parts. people have purpose and intent. people can be analyzed into basic parts. people have control over their lives?

Answer 1

The correct answer is: "people can be analyzed into basic parts."

Humanists would never believe that a person can be analyzed in a measurable and objective way or completely understood by diving the whole human being into observable parts.

In opposition, humanism is a philosophical stream that aims to highlight the inner value of human beings, both individually and in groups, by using critical thinking and without involving dogmas or superstitions (therefore, it is a secular movement, not connected to religious beliefs).
