	abstract = {The aim of this study is to focus on two forms of humanism: atheistic humanism (or humanistic atheism) and Christian humanism. The first type is represented by Czech philosopher Otakar A. Funda, while the second type is represented by two Christian thinkers {\textendash} Jolana Pol{\'a}kov{\'a} and Richard Schaeffler. By examining humanistic atheism, we can understand the distinctiveness and uniqueness of Christian humanism. In particular, I will highlight two aspects of Christian humanism: the concept of heteronomy and the concept of hope. I believe that one of the important roles of religion, especially Christianity, today is to contribute to the development of a humanism that emphasizes hope and the liberating heteronomy of God. Additionally, we can question whether, in a time of potential threats or even the possibility of the extinction of the human species, the {\textquotedblleft}earthly{\textquotedblright} reasons for {\textquotedblleft}why keep on giving life?{\textquotedblright} are sufficiently convincing and valid, or if they require a deeper foundation.},
