Cudds Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Hi All, I have a christian friend who takes every opportunity to tell me that my worldview is incomplete. I am having trouble expressing why a worldview needn't have all the answers, an afterlife, ultimate justice, etc (not that christianity is just anyway)... He just keeps repeating it every time we communicate. Does anybody have some thoughts that might be of use to me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GraphicsGuy Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Pffft! A Xian is telling you that your worldview is incomplete??? That's hilarious. A Xian's worldview is barely wide enough for a cat to slink through. Everything is viewed from the ideal that their religion is the only right way. Everything that's wrong with the world is because of sin and man's selfish desire to not follow Jesus. Mankind is evil. Only God is good. Yeah...that's a "complete" worldview for sure... *gag* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. S. Martin Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Cudds, you could always agree with him, and then throw in that neither is his worldview complete because none of us can possibly know everything. If he does not agree that he lacks some knowledge about something in this world, then he's probably not worth holding onto as "friend." That's my two cents.

Sorry for the double post everyone. Ah, but it's a doubly important problem. I wish I had the wisest answer, but I can't match what has been posted.
