Summary of Glenn S. Sunshine's Why You Think the Way You Do

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Your worldview is the framework you use to interpret the world and your place in it. It is like a set of glasses that you look through to bring what is happening in the world into mental focus. Your worldview is not just common sense, but also your intuitive answers to the basic philosophical questions of what is real, how we can know it, and what is right and wrong.

#2 We all have answers to the big questions of life, even if we aren’t aware of them. These answers are evident in our thoughts, words, and actions, and they are rarely examined or analyzed.

#3 Worldview is the most important aspect of a culture, as it shapes how people live. A society’s worldview can change over time, and this will result in changes in the culture.

#4 The key dynamic that begins the development of a Western worldview is the interaction of Greco-Roman civilization with Christianity. To understand this dynamic, I must start with a survey of worldviews within the Roman Empire.
