Preconception Quotes

“Our assumptions and presuppositions filter our perceptions of reality without any conscious effort. Even when we’re trying to be objective, we can’t get outside of ourselves to be unbiased. In addition, we have outside influences that also distort our perceptions of reality.”

“At the end of all the filtering, we take the distorted perception of reality and add it to our worldviews. Since the worldview created most of the filter in the first place, most of what goes back into the worldview is confirmation bias.”

“We should also note that a great deal of what is in a worldview isn’t even direct experience. We watch talking heads and videos that shape our worldviews. We read books and watch movies that shape our worldviews. Many other influences work on us, and most of these have been designed to shape our worldviews without our awareness. Our friends also influence us for good or evil. We daydream and rationalize and shape our worldviews that way. Worldviews are fake realities that seem deceptively real. Most of the time, we never question our worldviews but blindly trust them to run our lives. That’s the definition of living a lie.”

“When one person’s worldview differs from the worldview of another person, everything is fine until the two people realize that they aren’t seeing eye to eye. Each thinker will regard anything that clashes with his or her worldview to be insane and in conflict with reality.”

“Worldviews are fake realities made up of past interpretations. Interpretations aren’t the same as observations, and they aren’t the same as experiences. Interpretations add to the experiences of the past, and what they add is unreliable. What they add ultimately consists of made-up stuff mixed with flawed memories of some things that may or may not have worked in the past.”

“Worldviews aren’t even directly pragmatic. Many parts of our worldviews don’t even work. They limit us. They interfere with us. They hold us down. Some parts of our worldviews may be accurate while other parts of our worldviews are wildly inaccurate. And yet, every part of every person’s worldview seems accurate to the person who owns the worldview.”

“Here’s how we interpret our experiences. Assumptions come out of our worldviews, and our worldviews are based on previous interpretations of experiences. This is why one person’s assumptions will often be very different from another person’s assumptions. Worldviews vary from person to person in extreme ways.”
