Please read these before posting such rubbish, particularly the second article. Right now, it seems that you have not made any attempt to understand what humanism actually is, and would have found links to these pages had you spent five mintes reading the first link, which Storm kindly provided for you.
But, simply, from my reading of the articles about humanism, (would like to thank Storm for bringing this up) I cannot classify myself as a humanist for several reasons. Firstly, my interest is in myself first and foremost, followed by family, then friends and acquaintances. I have little compassion for strangers, and that is contrary to humanism. Secondly, humanism believes that everyone, regardless of their situation, is capable of striving for humanistic ideals. I think that that is rubbish, because people are too greedy and self-interested to care about strangers, when they have far more pressing personal concerns.
The second article should refute your assertation that humanism excludes religion. Religious humanism emphasises logical reason, although people have managed to include humanist beliefs with their religious beliefs.
The third is simply to show that there is a differentiation between religious humanism and non-religious humanism.
The last part of your post is worth a separate thread. However, it seems quite hypocritical to say that people that act in the name of your religion doing evil deeds does not really belong to your religion, while say that everyone that acts in the name of your religion doing good actually does.
