You certainly do trust your own perspectives. Even when presented with rock solid proof that you distort the things that you read. Be well, my friend.
That is the problem with "perspectives" in our species. They are more often than not, flawed.
In a very real sense, it is the same as why a person can confuse a clean glass door as being open, and walk right into it. Our species perceptions of reality are notoriously flawed.
Most humans in antiquity, thought the earth was flat. There also was a time when most humans thought the heart, and not the brain, did the thinking.
The key to universal consensus is to filter out personal bias, which is what the principle concept of scientific method does through data collection, established formulas, good sample rates, control groups, and independent peer review.
All the religions of the world are NOT objective universal agreed upon facts. Neither are political or economic views. Those are human invented constructs that really are nothing more than our species excuses to form groups to justify control over resources. What is universal is the fact we are the same species. What is universal is that no matter where we live in the world, we are all made up of Adenine, Guanine, Thymine and Cytosine.
