A challenge is an attempt to remove or restrict materials based upon the objections of a person or group. A banning is the removal of those materials. Challenges do not simply involve a person expressing a point of view; rather, they are an attempt to remove material from the curriculum or library, thereby restricting the access of others.

According the bible these men "understood the times and knew what Israel should do". During war you need a group like these men who understand the situation and what needs to be done in response.

American Worldview Inventory 2021 Release #02 introduces "Moralistic Therapeutic Deism" as the most popular worldview in America today.

Moralistic Therapeutic Deism (MTD) is a worldview initially identified and named by sociologists Christian Smith and Melinda Lundquist Denton.

Kingdom Exploitz with John Rushemeza#6| Men Play a Major Role in Abortion Decisions.Men play a critical role in determining whether a woman chooses to have an abortion, according to a Care Net survey released last week.

• James Anderson in his article “On Worldviews”-
Worldviews shape and inform our experiences of the world around us. Like spectacles with colored lenses, they affect what we see and how we see it. Depending on the "color" of the lenses, some things may be seen more easily, or conversely, they may be de-emphasized or distorted—indeed, some things may not be seen at all-
Popular Worldview:
