Check out the prof's evaluations - "Everyone should be required to take this class to "spread the word.", "I worship Dr. Pianka", "I knew this would be a most interesting class the first day when Dr. Pianka downed homocentrism."

"Homocentrism" or "Humanicentrism" are barbarisms. "Anthropocentric" is generally the preferred term, but I thought it was prominent only in the Animal Rights movement, which labels anthropocentrism with another barbarism, "speciesist."

Regardless, the movement is full of inhumanist misanthropy. Give me that old-time Humanism.
