Its main goal is to spread the incorporation of "mutual respect" value among everyone, in order to bring "social progress and knowledge in all fields and places" into society.

While Menitorism includes ideas such as cosmopolitanism, reformism, and gender, ethnic and racial equality. Some of its variants hold contrasting ideas such as male-chauvinism, elitism, segregationism, positivism and nationalism.
