Worldview
Worldview is how we view the world, things and beliefs around us through seeing, hearing. It helps us to answers questions about the makeup of the world and not to make assumptions or have the wrong interpretation to the explanations we are seeking. And finally worldview shows plays active part in our daily lives whether we believe it or not through resources such as television, education, magazines, science, government and other supporting materials.
The Question of Origin – From a Christian worldview life begin by an all-powerful and magnificent being God (Genesis 1:1). God then brought for the creation of the heavens and earth along with the light, darkness, evening and morning to be dressed upon the earth. With God’s words, …show more content…

(Genesis 1:26-30). Just like Adam we are all capable of doing God’s will but we must also live by faith and obedience and I think that’s our purpose (Genesis 2:15, 17).
The Question of Morality- I believe to measure your ability to balance their “right and wrong” a person must have morals to act and live by. For instance don’t be fooled by people who doesn’t have your best interest at heart because they bad habits or judgment can put you in an uncompromising situation that could reflect on you badly (1 Corinthians 15:33). I live by confessing my sins to God and asking for his forgiveness. (1 John 1:9) because I know that the mind and the flesh can be weak and temptation can be our downfall.
Question of Destiny- How worldview influence the way I think, treat and speak to other is based on my respect and ability to have an open mind and to treat others and they would treat me when I interact with people on a diverse platform. I think it helps me as a person to better understand how myself and others views, beliefs and opinions which sometimes can make you stronger or can weaken your sense of worth. In terms of deciding on a future career I feel that I’m

Being surrounded by people of different cultural backgrounds can be overwhelming as shown in “When Worlds Collide” by Pico Iyer, and the way a person perceives them is influenced by their own culture. Although there are many factors that affect an individual’s perspective of the world, culture always shapes perception because it introduces a basis for what is usual in life and what is uncommon in their eyes. In An Indian Father’s Plea, culture strongly influences Wind-Wolf, the speaker’s son, in all aspects of his life. Wind-Wolf has been raised with certain values that have changed the way he interacts with others.

Culture is the behaviors beliefs and characteristics of a particular social ethnic age group. That means you have many different cultures like family culture, friend culture, and interest culture like music culture do you think any of these cultures affect how you view the world? Well, culture affects how we view things entirely because our cultures helps us define our moral senses.

Based off of what I know, people view the world a certain way because that is the way they were taught to view it. Many people develop their values, beliefs and assumptions based on what they are told and taught as children. Knowing that, it is difficult for people to change their beliefs because they dislike ideas that go against the values or beliefs they were taught to be true. They have this constant fear that if they even try to view something from a different perspective, their original values will be seen as incorrect. Considering that, we can use Annie Dillard’s essay, “Sight into Insight”, where she gives her readers two different ways she believes everyone should see the world, in order to understand the comparison made between whales and humans, as mentioned in Brian Doyle’s essay, “Joyas Voladoras”.

Ethnocentrism is a silent problem which many people are not aware of. Some scholars have defined ethnocentrism as “the making of judgements” based on criteria of one’s cultural groups. It is characterized by applying those criteria in judging other behaviors and belief of people who may be from the different cultural backgrounds. Bennett, a founding director and CEO of the Intercultural Development Research Institute (IDR Institute), has defined ethnocentrism as “assuming that the worldview of one’s own culture is central to all reality”. He also suggested that people who has ethnocentric mindset tend to use their own worldview to interpret other’s behavior and that the idea of a “universal truth” is usually based on one’s own value.
