"The knower's perspective is essential in the pursuit of knowledge." To what extent do you agree?

1. Central Knowledge Question

   • To what extent can religious knowledge systems and ethics be considered inseparable notions?
     • Subsidiary Knowledge Questions
       • To what extent does personal knowledge influence shared knowledge on religion and ethics?
       • To what extent are transcendental concepts influenced by religion and ethics?
       • To what extent are religious beliefs influenced by cultural conceptions?
       • To what extent can ethics stand alone without the influence of religion?

2. Thesis (my position regarding the title)

   • Societies who dictate and bound their whole lives to religion and its values end up solely basing their ethical decisions around faith too.
   • Political values and decisions which eventually end up building a society's/nation's or community's ethical views can't be separated from religious notions.
   • Education can't be separated from perspective, therefore it can;t be separated from religious notions.

3. Reasons that I'm interested in the title

   • My favourite Areas of Knowledge are exploitable. from the point of view that stems from this thesis
     • Showcases the importance and influence of an individual's perspective when accepting other points of view.
       • Looks for a relation between different Areas of Knowledge and Ways of Knowing within a same discipline.

4. Ethics

   • Ties in with politics, education, and religion.
   • Reason, Emotion, Intuition, Faith

5. Religious Knowledge Systems

   • Religious values, ties in with politics and education.
   • Faith, Emotion, Language, Memory

6. Possible counter-arguments

   • One can pursue and digest knowledge from a completely unattached and neutral point of view on the matter.
   • The knower's perspective isn;t expected to shape or try and change the acquired knowledge.
