 Numb3rs is Humanist
4/8/07
My husband and I almost fell off the couch last night. We were watching the “Burn Rate” episode of Numb3rs, and there they were, talking about how Humanism applies to a situation in the show. And it was a good conversation. Clearly, the writers understand what Humanism is, that a college professor would be susceptible to an explicit Humanist argument, and that it would absolutely be relevant to a moral discussion about what the right and moral course of action would be in a given situation. More importantly, Humanism was used to appeal to a characters better sense of self. It was awesome. Write Comment (0 comments) |
