Do not merely inherit a belief. Test it.
Examine your faith or worldview through logic, evidence, history, explanatory power, moral coherence, and lived consistency. This system does not ask what is popular. It asks what is true.
Seven tests for any worldview
A meaningful faith test must do more than measure emotion. It must ask whether a worldview is internally consistent, historically credible, evidentially grounded, and capable of explaining reality.
Test your faith
Rate each statement honestly. “Uncertain” is a valid answer and often the beginning of deeper investigation.
Rules for a fair examination
Use equal standards
Do not demand strict evidence from another worldview while protecting your own from examination.
Represent beliefs accurately
Test the strongest version of a worldview, not a caricature of what its followers believe.
Separate truth from comfort
A belief may be emotionally comforting and still false, or emotionally difficult and still true.
Permit correction
A genuine investigation must allow evidence to change your position.
Distinguish people from claims
Respect every person while rigorously examining the truth of every idea.
Follow the evidence
Do not stop at the conclusion you prefer. Continue toward the conclusion best supported by reality.
