In another thread, it was suggested the people choose their truth. Choice implies that can select other options.
Are your truths a result of choice?
Did you choose your worldview, your core values, or what you believe? Can you just flip a switch and change your worldview, core values, or beliefs?
Discuss.
Whatever I tend to believe probably comes about from the Sherlock Holmes approach - as to eliminating the impossible and being left with what remains, however improbable. With the impossible usually being so many religious texts describing beliefs that I cannot subscribe to, especially when the provenance is lacking, they often promote discrimination or tend to divide us, or because there are so many of them and which tend to fill the spectrum for such beliefs - which then might indicate a human origin for such.
And although science often is mistaken as to being an accurate representation of truth, it does tend to have a better track record for reflecting truth than anything else, so a good understanding of science is a better base for understanding everything else than any religious belief is to my mind. Not that there might be some things that science simply cannot describe - at the present and possibly into the future - but we live in the world we inhabit, not some imaginary one.
So essentially, it would be rather difficult to change how I tend to think and believe, and especially so given the 'have faith' approach advocated by many - as long as it is their belief to which one must subscribe.
Also, given that most of my views seem less likely to be discriminately than so many others, changing them would seem to imply negatives as to changing values - freedoms, morality, and responsibilities, for example - and hence why I am reasonably comfortable with these. Apart from politics perhaps, given that I don't know what could replace democracy and be better.
