Everyone has a worldview

I must admit, I like the way David Limbaugh's mind works, inasmuch as his words portray. He seems so thoughtful next to his brother's bombast. He has a very good point here:

Others -- including some conservatives and some liberals, for different reasons -- say that a nominee's faith should not inform his or her jurisprudence. Many secular liberals, for their part, have this pathetically misguided notion that government officials even in the political branches of government should not permit their Christian worldview to inform their policy decisions.

Since they deem the judiciary a political branch as well, they also consider it improper for judges to allow their Christianity to play a role. The liberals' objection here has nothing to do with judicial activism or with government officials of any branch being influenced by their respective worldview. Their objection goes exclusively to the Christian worldview. They are as pleased as pagans if judges become jurisprudential slaves to their secular humanist worldview.

His point - that EVERYONE comes with a governing worldview - is one that needs to be trumpeted loud and often. The left is quick to focus on a Christian's worldview - for it's easy to do so - as it stands often in stark contrast to the values promoted as good and reasonable these days. But the absence of worldview conflict does not mean an absence of worldview; rather, it's that the worldview of the individual is in sync with the aforementioned values.

This is something akin to living in a culture and not realizing you have an accent to your speech (admitting you have an accent would be the second step of awareness). It may not differ from those around you, but travel to another part of the country and you'll sense the conflict. Oh, it may be at first that everyone around you seems to have an accent, but once you're there for a while - perhaps because you have to be for some reason - you'll just possibly realize (and later admit) that you have an accent.

So the question becomes, "how would we best (and most easily) help a man who claims no prevailing worldview guides his actions to see that in fact a very thorough one does?"

Perhaps the answer is in the metaphor above - that we'd have to force him to be in a situation of conflict, that is, living in a situation wherein his worldview is against another set of values.
