Behavioral humanism -- Existential humanism -- Pragmatic humanism -- Marxist humanism -- Egocentric humanism -- Cultural humanism -- Christian humanism -- Secular humanism -- The helpful emphases of secular humanism -- The scientific inadequacies of secular humanism -- The internal inconsistencies of secular humanism -- The religious inadequacies of secular humanism -- The philosophical insufficiency of secular humanism -- The social arrogance of secular humanism.

Subject: Not everything about humanism is bad from a Christian point of view. Indeed, there are many emphases within humanism which are compatible with Christian beliefs (chapter 8-9). On the other hand, secular humanism presents one of the greatest threats to the survival of Christianity in the world today. It is for this reason that a Christian should carefully study its basic beliefs and scrutinize their adequacy.
