How is EarthSun different from naturalism?
Naturalism is usually a philosophical view about reality and explanation. EarthSun draws from naturalistic understanding but adds a public foundation, explicit ethical commitments, symbolic language and a community for exploring them together. It is a shared practice of inquiry, not only a metaphysical thesis.
A deeper answer
A person can be a naturalist without joining any community, and someone can engage with EarthSun without adopting every philosophical use of the term naturalism.
These are EarthSun’s published views. Where the evidence is incomplete, the question remains open.
EarthSun turns natural belonging into shared inquiry, meaning and responsibility.
Ownership of naturalism or a single definition accepted by every philosopher.
