I believe that my conscious existence is a privilege beyond description.

I believe that every word of all text in existence is the product of human thought.

I believe I should regard myself as neither superior nor inferior to anything within the infinite universe.

I believe I should avoid needlessly extinguishing life or disturbing natural order within the infinite universe.

I believe the profound is all around.

ETHOS is a profound five-tenet belief system that stands in absolute awe before the infinite universe — the concept of infinity being beyond human comprehension. As explained in the anthem, ETHOS dismisses gods as being a creation of human imagination — primarily that of the human male.

Perfectly represented by the mysterious, enigmatic mobius infinity symbol, ETHOS is a profoundly simple belief system — truly a belief system for our times. The deadly, inexplicable rise of anti-science has become epidemic. In the US, Christian nationalism has breached the Jeffersonian wall of separation between church and state. Voltaire’s warning of 1765 has become five-alarmingly relevant: “Anyone who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.”

Should you identify with the five tenets of the ETHOS belief system, I would be honoured to have you be a part of the growing worldwide ETHOS community. Carry the card and keep the ETHOS close by. Own the anthem, share it widely, and turn it up at the traffic lights!

We’re just getting started.
