This Stuff Matters with Tom Gray

Episode 10: Going For It: What We Believe


Listen Later

Well, if you’re ready to not just sit back and believe whatever the culture you live in feeds you by osmosis, and if you’re ready to take the reins of determining what you believe intentionally, here we go. At the center of any belief system, we need to ask four fundamental questions.

1. Where did I/we come from? The question of origin.

2. Why am I here? The question of purpose.

3. What should I do? The question of morality/justice.

4. Where am I going? The question of destiny.

As we seek the best answers to those questions, we can analyze the answers that different philosophies and/or religions offer by using two tests.

1. The correspondence test. Does the answer suggest correspond to the world as I can experience/observe it?

2 The coherence test. Do the collective answers give the form of a coherent whole across all four questions?
