Now that we know we need to treat worldviews as theories and compare them with truth, we need to know what exactly we will be comparing first to truth in the worldview?
Worldviews aren’t simple statements about life like facts: they can get very complicated! Should we test first on the rules and or regulations of a worldview? Should we test first on where it says everything originated and why the world is this way? Should we test on what it says to do to fix/or make the world a better place? Should we test on what it says will happen in the future/is happening? All of these?
This is the complicated part: What will we be tested? it’s too much to test all these things AT ONCE! It would be hard even for a professional scientist to find this out, but with science itself we can find out!
logically: Since we are trying to judge one thing on the entire credibility of a worldview, the thing we judge about the worldview should be the foundation of the worldview and pretty much sum up what the entire worldview is about:
is there something in a worldview that does this?
Yes, there is!
Out of all the factors, a worldview's origin; or how the universe came about and why; is the major foundation and cornerstone to ALL OTHER parts of the worldview! So, out of all of these worldview factors we need to pay attention and test the origins very seriously!
So, we need to examine the basic origins of worldviews we want to test:
Out of all the worldviews that exist among people today almost all of them come down to about 2 major origin theories that we will be testing.
