Integrative worldviews appear to be primarily characterized by a self-reflexive attempt to bring together and synthesize elements of other worldviews, or of domains that in other worldviews tend to be viewed as mutually exclusive, such as science (or rationality) and spirituality, imagination and logic, heart and mind, humanity and natureperspectives that in the West have been in conflict for centuries. In this worldview, such opposing perspectives are frequently understood to be part of a greater whole or synthesison a deeper levelresulting in both-and rather than either-or thinking. Such a holistic or integrative perspective may lead to a profound sense of connection with nature, and an understanding of earthly life itself as imbued with a larger consciousness or Spirit. Universal, existential concernssuch as life and death, self-actualization, global awareness, and serving society, hum anity, or even life at largeare often of central importance.

California (1957-1979), New Mexico (1979-1996) Some of it is about time and place. {abe} in my personal experience.Still agree questions were a bit biased and weird.Edited by anglagard, : Also replaced a lot with some to make statement more realistic.

All creatures currently alive are equally evolved to fit their niche if you are somehow referring to the TOE. As for sharing a supposed worldview with Phat, that's fine with me. Having many conversations with him back when chat was active, I know he is a lot sharper than some people think. He is also religious without being dogmatic, a quality some lack. Actually, one of the main reasons I left California was I was sick of new age claptrap along with vacuous Hollywood values. When I moved to New Mexico, I attended New Mexico Tech which offers no degree programs outside of the sciences and engineering other than math and has no sport programs - how refreshing.What I mean is I grew up on a very diverse state that was ground zero in a major cultural shift in the USA. I was exposed to different worldviews, some just emerging, in my formative years than most US citizens are exposed to in a lifetime. As for New Mexico the experience was similar as the college attracted students worldwide to an even greater extent than the one I attended in California. Additionally it was 45% Hispanic with a culture dating back 400 years, and 10% American Indian, on top of that, which is another multi-culture in its own right.I am not saying such experiences are unique to both states, just that I think it has a lot to do with being labelled integrative by this one goofy, biased, and unscientific test. I answered every question, that was the result. I thought most questions had multiple answers I could agree to but chose what I felt was a best fit to my current state of mind.
