9.1.2 Quintessential Corrigible Professions

Version 1.10, March 2013                                             Previous Version

 

This page introduces another alternative way of summarising these ‘global beliefs and values’.  We have called these:

The Quintessential, Corrigible Professions

of a Reasonable Global Way: The Tenets of Global Beliefs.

·        quintessential (the most essential, the best, and, incidentally, 5 major points)

·        corrigible (they may need correction based on more reason, evidence or insight)

·        professions (statements we can make, what we profess)

·        reasonable (based on reason, evidence and insight, in open debate)

·        way (path, philosophy of life, world view, way of life)

·        tenets (beliefs we can hold, even if we hold these tentatively as working hypotheses)

·        global (covering life’s most fundamental issues, and which can be held by everyone)

·        beliefs (tentative working hypotheses as guides to choices and actions we have to make)

As we read these “professions� we need to keep in mind:

Our choices reflect the values that we hold.  Our values guide our choices.
