I hope all the STEM people who thought maybe we could simply do without all that pesky humanities education now understand how ridiculous that notion always has been.
@Robo105 I'd offer that religion tells us what we should and should not do, while the humanities invite us to figure out for ourselves what we should or should not do. No reason they can't work in harmony, though!
@thecityinspeech I am not religious at all but I know religion has driven people do to great things; abolition, education, child labour rights. Like all things it has also been used for evil but that is also true of the humanities I agree they can work in harmony.
