Like it or not you have a worldview. There are many people that will tell you, “Oh, I 'm open minded and I don’t like to tie my self down to one worldview.” That in and of itself is a worldview. As human beings it is impossible for us not to have a worldview. It is how we were created. We are created to think, but the problem seems to be that most people don’t want to use the brain God created. They just blindly walk around like sheep in a herd. We were not created to be robots that is why free will exists. Regardless of age, gender, race or religion you have a worldview. The world view of a child is going to be vastly different than that of an adults, but that is to be expected. It 's up to us whether we have a worldview of an adult or that

The most vital part of a worldview, I believe, is be fearless. No matter what stand your ground on the things you believe. If you believe that the Earth is flat and rest on the backs of turtles then don’t let anyone tell you other wise, now I would hope that I would raise him with enough sense to not believe that; but you never know. I deeply believe that if you are going to live your life by a set of standards, even if you make them yourself or you take them from whatever holy book that is out there you need to stick to them. As I stated previously we live in a society of sheepish people that go with the flow. They believe what there parents, church, or government tell them to but don’t think for themselves. As for my world view, it is fairly simple. One, I believe we are created, that there is indeed a designer out there with a grand plan, and here is why I believe that. I don’t think it is humanly possible for any one person to be as lucky as I have been and have so many things work out for my benefit. If the world was chaos and randomness I would be in my grave by now. If there was no plan and everything was random I would not have the education I do, I would not have the amazing mentors I do, and I would not have the possessions I …show more content…
We live in a time where everything is documented and recorded. Every day of our lives is put on record. So it has created this stigma where if you can 't see it its not real. I believe we have passed the age of blind faith, where people blindly trusted in a god that may or may not be there to give them hope. In some areas evidence first based approach is needed, but we can never forget that our ancestors did pretty well for themselves relying on what they believe and sticking to that. That being said, there are some people who, despite plenty of evidence, will not change their worldview. Possibly one of the easiest examples to pick on is evolution vs creation. Despite the evidence, or lack there of for evolution there is nothing that one man can do to change someones mind about it. You can sit all the evidence against evolution in front of them and nine times out of ten they will say its fake or biased research. When in reality, their side is the one that has time and time again faked evidence in their
