I'm not ranting against religious faith. I'm just curious about where the BBC's policies come from!

@PhilosophyExp@sjzara For whatever that may be worth - I'm not big on belief systems except those that are explicitly incomplete.
@Metamagician @sjzara I think the non-religious systems is a reference to things such as Confucianism (i.e., it's a multicultural thing).

@PhilosophyExp@Metamagician I admit I do have a tendency to misunderstand the flipping obvious - perhaps that's what's happening here. -
@sjzara@Metamagician I've sat in on a couple of BBC programme planning meetings. They take that aspect seriously. -
@PhilosophyExp@Metamagician That's fascinating. When does 'representing views' cross over to 'presenting falsehood'? Difficult. -
@sjzara@Metamagician It was going to be necessary to have religious representation on the programme (because ethics). -
@PhilosophyExp@Metamagician That's an interesting example. When younger I knew nothing of secular ethics. Only religious ethics /1 -
@PhilosophyExp@Metamagician BBC had certainly not informed me that secular ethics was either possible or reasonable, and mainstream. -
