I've been meaning to ask Matthew his opinion of the notion
of "world view". Maybe some other readers can also contribute.

Some issues are: the relation between world view and reality,
can one transcend a world view, can one shift between world
views, how can world views be manipulated by power seeking
politicians, and greedy capitalists, and so on.
