Of the six worldviews listed, which two are most alike? Which two are the most dissimilar? Explain.
-
Deism & Monotheism – both believe in God, just not that He sits on the throne for both.
Naturalism & Monotheism – faith vs science -
Christianity and Judaism seem to be the most similar, although they differ on Jesus as the Messiah. Both recognize the Old Testament as truth.
Christianity which explains the meaning of life and existentialism finds no meaning in life seems to be most dissimilar.
-
Monotheism and Deism both recognize a creator.
Monotheism vs. Nihilism seems to be the most dissimilar. Nihilism appears to reject anything and everything.
Most of these worldviews contain elements of truth.
What is worse than the truth? Lies or deceptions or untruths mixed in with the truth. -
I believe that Christianity and Judaism seem to be the most similar. They both believe in the same God. They are both involved and each other’s stories. Jesus quotes the pentateuch several times thus bringing the two together. The only difference is the ending of the story.
Naturalism and pantheism seem to be diametrically opposed. Naturalism believing that matter is reality or truth proven through science. Pantheism believes matter is an illusion and all that exists spirit.
-
Nihilism and Existentialism are very similar to me because neither value life and view the word as absurd and have no moral values.
Judaism and Christianity are the most similar because they both state hope is in the Messiah.
