A Light in This Dark Semester

A redefining of the term Worldview:

"A recognition that a worldview is not just a set of basic concepts but a fundamental orientation of the heart. Second it is an explicit insistence that at the deepest root of a worldview is its commitment to and understanding of the 'really real.' Third is a consideration of behavior in the determination of what one's own or another's worldview really is. Fourth is a broader understanding of how worldviews are grasped as story, not just as abstract propositions... Let the rethinking begin." James W. Sire in Rethinking the Elephant

Amen. 
I already love this Worldview/Philosophy class.
