I'm a fan of Secular Humanism . In its ORIGINAL form from the early 1800s. It was wedded to OBJECTIVITY (not the subjectivity of post modern corruptions of Humanism). It effectively enshrined Jesus' 'do unto others as they would do unto you' into a philosophical Ethical framework that could be equally adopted by the different (then warring) factions of Christendom (Catholic/Protestant/Lutheran etc) and also provided an ethical anchor for Atheism
It was Secular Humanism that ENDED the bloodshed of the catholic/protestant wars. Its the SECULAR CONTRACT that we must compel Islam to sign (and thus reform) if there is any prospect to avoid civil war with them (not so important in USA, but in the European theatre they have 2 decades before Demographics replicate the fragile/volatile Yugoslavia)

Both true and wise - in a certain sense. But that model become the 'an eye for an eye' - and then it becomes ' we'd better take an eye Before they take our eye '
And then 1400 years later your Sunni / Shia rift looks as eternal as ever
