Two Basic Worldviews
Theism – there is a God
- Biblical Christianity
- Creation
Naturalism – nature is all there is
- Atheism (there is no God)
- Evolution
Each of these worldviews answers the important questions very differently!
Notes:
There are ultimately only two basic worldviews – theism and naturalism, there is a God or there is not a God. A fundamental part of naturalism is the idea of “evolution”, that some purely natural process has formed the universe, its structures, and all living things.
Even though a large percentage of the population claims to believe in God, almost all scientific and public affairs are conducted as if God were not there! This can lead to a Christian thinking some or much of the time like the secular world thinks. We often don’t realize the extent to which our thinking is warped away from the biblical viewpoint and ideal.
