0.0.2 Reasonable Core Values
Version 1.1 October 2013Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Previous
Version
Our
analysis leads us to the core values below.
We don't begin
with these values or assume them.
We explain
how we arrive at them and can justify them.
We encourage each person to make
up their own minds based on our explanations.Â
We are confident most people will find these values consistent with
their own.
|
Truth:
|
We believe it is valid
to seek and speak the truth, which we can approach with reason and evidence,
and we know some things are definitely wrong.
|
|
Diversity:
|
We live with
uncertainty, knowing others have different views, that we may change our own views:
we value informed diversity that allows growth.
|
|
Life:
|
We
choose to pursue life’s struggle; we value all life, especially human life,
recognising people’s rights to be responsible for  their own lives.
|
|
Love:
|
We choose the path of
compassion, for our fellow human beings and all sentient life, which implies understanding,
respect and self-control.
|
|
Beauty:
|
We value our shared,
subjective, sense of beauty, in nature: its majesty, awe, and mystery; in artistic
works; and in freely expressing ourselves.
|
|
Responsibility:
|
We choose to accept personal responsibility, in how we use
our freedoms, and to join in the struggle for the good, based on effective
accountability.
|
|
Equality:
|
We choose to participate
in society, based on security, accountability, liberty, justice and mercy,
human rights and secular liberal democracy.
|
|
Hope:
|
We value knowing that
our beliefs and values are a reasonable global way, that positive action is
valid and worthwhile: this gives us courage to act.
|

values? See next page.

What
about other values?
Other values can be defined in
terms of these core values or are strategic choices to effect these core values.Â
For instance::
●Â Â Courage is an essential component of our
value choices to face up to Life and Love, to accept
our Responsibility, extend and defend Equality, and maintain our Hope.
●Â Freedom promotes prosperity and fulfilment.Â
Economic freedom promotes Life free from want. Political
freedom enables us to pursue the Truth in Diversity, to
value human Life, to choose who we Love, and live in Hope.
●Â The rule of law, which restricts as well as promotes our
freedom, supports our values of Truth, Responsibility
and Equality.
●Â Stability, Security
&Democracy are
strategic values we choose to support Truth,
Diversity, Life, Love, Beauty, Responsibility, Equality & Hope.
