rjh4 when it comes to your worldview there is not much to say. Christians in general base their beliefs on the bible which in more ways than one has been shown to be incorrect in the most mundane matters such as the various verified claims made and proven by the various scientific disciplines. My point is that your worldview makes unsubstantiated claims based on nothing other than a series of ancient texts. Not only do you make these claims but you assert that these claims are absolutely true.
My worldview does not make such claims unless it has been observed, experimented, and repeated by others following the same methodology. When it comes to origins I am content to say that I honestly don't know, but my lack of knowledge would not allow me to accept a so called claim of divine inspiration as the final answer. I consider myself a well grounded individual and am open to other worldviews considering they have some sort of evidence to substantiate their claims, other than "I feel, or have faith that such and such a thing is true". Blessed assurance is not a valid way to judge truth claims.
2 Timothy 3:15-17
15.And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16.All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17.That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
These verses sum up your entire worldview faith in Christ leads you to believe that the bible is inspired by your god. Very simple and not very convincing as any sort of evidence to support any argument.

There is nothing people will not maintain when they are slaves to superstition
