Worldview:<\/strong> Naturalism and duck sovereignty and responsibility. Duckhood is the measure of all things and the value of the world lies in our interpretation and action.<\/p>\n

Ethical Stance:<\/strong> Priority always to duck dignity, equality, and development beyond all alternative systems of beliefs and values.<\/p>\n

Cultural Ideal:<\/strong> Paideia, Duckanitas and Bildung<\/a> as cultural-pedagogical visions of duckhood at its best, full development and actualization, as well as being well, doing well or duck flourishing.<\/p>\n

Themes<\/strong><\/h2>\n

<\/strong>Universal duck ethic<\/em> that secures dignity, equality, solidarity, and diversity (personal and cultural pluralism) as well as dialogic, caring, empathetic interpersonal relations (autonomy, authenticity and personal liberties as well as duck solidarity and social responsibility).<\/p>\n

Intellectual virtues<\/em> of rationality, critical reasoning, open-mindedness, free inquiry & creativity.<\/p>\n

Participatory and deliberative Democratic politics<\/em>, welfare state, securing both personal liberties and social justice and solidarity.<\/p>\n

Holistic education<\/em>, giving equal opportunities to fulfill potentialities, personal growth, broad education, and active participation in the natural, social, cultural and political spheres of life.<\/p>\n

Enemies<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Religious fundamentalism.<\/li>\n
  2. Totalitarian ideologies and regimes.<\/li>\n
  3. Tyrannical capitalism (worshiping wealth, success, instrumentalism, and social Darwinism).<\/li>\n
  4. Ethical nihilism (including subjectivism, anything goes and all-embracing relativism, meaninglessness and political tolerance.)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
