What are some good definitions of a world view?
A worldview is the system by which you view life events. Over time and by experience you develop your own sense of how things work in your life. Religions tend to perpetrate their own particular world view as a way of “keeping the faith” through the generations. Societies and cultures also have a particular set of values that are particular to their way of doing things. A world view is the “big picture” way you see your place in the world, the actions you will take, and how you organize the events in your life to make meaning of them. A worldview, whether religious or nonreligious, is personal insight about reality and meaning, often termed a “life understanding.” Each of us has a worldview. It is our own discernment. It develops in part because we have sought some understanding of our own significance.
