"THE DEBATE that divides our contemporaries and that compels us all to make an election is between two conceptions of humanism: a "theocentric" conception, which is the Christian conception; and an "anthropocentric" conception, which has its first origins in the Spirit of the Renaissance. The first conception may be described as authentic humanism; the second conception may be called inhuman humanism."
