"The term worldview may sound abstract or
philosophical, a topic discussed by pipe-smoking, tweed-jacketed
professors in academic settings. But actually a person's
worldview is intensely practical. It is simply the sum total
of our beliefs about the world, the 'big picture' that directs our
daily decisions and actions...every worldview can be analyzed by the
way it answers three basic questions: Where did we come from,
and who are we?...What has gone wrong with the world?...And what can
we do to fix it? These three questions form a grid that we can
use to break down the inner logic of every belief system or
philosophy we encounter, from the textbooks in our classrooms to the
unspoken philosophy that shapes the message we hear on Oprah."
-- Chuck Colson, from How Now Shall We Live?
