Hitler had answers. Pol Pot had answers. And their answers were correct until someone with more power decided they weren't. But until then, if you were within their sphere of power, they were the "right" answers. And theirs were most definitely "humanist" answers.

Retort: Again, misinformation and disinformation. There have been murderous tyrants since the beginning of the homo species. And what has your "God" done about it? Nothing, that I can tell. In all cases, it was decent and ethical humans who eventually put a stop to their regimes. Now the Germans have a prosperous and ethical nation. Cambodia remains under the control of Communists, but at least there are not the purges that are killing tens of thousands of people "just because". And in both cases, in all cases, that happened because HUMANS, other humans, came to the rescue. Sometimes it wasn't very pretty, as in wars that kill quite literally millions, but the outcome was positive for the long term social milieu of the world.
Humanism has the answers, and without the myth and superstitions that form the foundation of religion.
