  Something along the lines of encompassing every positive thing about religions that pertains to the interaction of humans with other humans, environment, themselves, etc. One that embraces debate and incites to challenge any dogmatic belief. One that doesn't shy away from hard questions, one where people would say "I don't know" instead of coming up with a story to explain something. A human and humane religion, essentially, that takes out the divine from the equation.. If there is a God, I don't think a human can either harm or help him/her. But if you believe in Heaven and Hell, I think it's fair to assume that people go to Hell and Heaven for what they have done to and for humans, and rarely for what they have done to and for the Lord.
