the first Humanist Manifesto give an expression to this doctrine. More-
over, humanists maintain that science supports these claims.
However, they are wrong. Since the first Humanist Manifesto was
published, the two premises that humanists have presented as suppos-

edly scientific have collapsed:
1. The erroneous idea that the universe is eternal was invalidated
by a series of astronomical discoveries made when the first Humanist
Manifesto was being written. Discoveries such as the fact that the uni-
verse is expanding, of cosmic background radiation and the calculation of
the ratio of hydrogen to helium, have shown that the universe had a be-
ginning, and that it came to be from nothing some 15-17 billion years ago

in a giant explosion called the "Big Bang." Although those who espouse
the humanist and materialist philosophy were unwilling to accept the Big
Bang theory, they were eventually won over. As a result of the scientific
