In the human quest for orientation vis-a-vis personal life and
comprehensive reality the worldviews of religionists and humanists
offer different answers, and science also plays a crucial role. Yet
it is the ordinary, embodied experience of meaningful engagement
with reality in which all these cultural activities are rooted.
Human beings have to relate themselves to the entirety of their
lives to achieve orientation. This relation involves a
non-methodical, meaningful experience that exhibits the crucial
features for understanding worldviews: it comprises cognition,
volition, and emotion, is embodied, action-oriented, and
expressive. From this starting-point, religious and secular
worldviews articulate what is experienced as ultimately meaningful.
Yet the plurality and one-sidedness of these life stances
necessitates critical engagement for which philosophy provides
indispensable means. In the end, some worldviews can be ruled out,
but we are still left with a plurality of genuine options for
orientation.
