A world view or worldview is the fundamental cognitive orientation of an individual or society encompassing the whole of the individual's or society's knowledge and point of view.
 A world view can include natural philosophy; fundamental, existential, and normative postulates; or themes, values, emotions, and ethics.
 The term is a calque of the German word Weltanschauung ] , composed of "Welt" ('world') and "Anschauung" ('view' or 'outlook').
 The German word is also used in English.
World View Enterprises, Inc., or World View, is a private American near-space exploration company headquartered in Tucson, Arizona, that plans to use high-altitude helium balloons to gently lift people and scientific payloads twenty miles (approximately 32 kilometers) above earth for the purposes of space tourism, scientific research, and a wide range of other commercial applications.
Anxiety buffer disruption theory (ABDT) is an application of terror management theory to explain an individual's reaction to a traumatic event, which leads to post traumatic stress disorder.
 Terror management theory posits that humans, unlike any other organism, are uniquely aware that death is the inevitable outcome of life.
 When thoughts of death are made salient, such as when a terrorist attack carries those thoughts into the level of consciousness, humans are subject to debilitating anxiety unless it can be "buffered."
 Humans respond to the anxiety and dread mortality salience produces by clinging to their cultural worldview, through self-esteem and also close personal relationships.
 Cultural worldviews, with their cultural norms, religious beliefs and moral values infuse life with meaning.
 They give life a feeling of normalcy and also a feeling of control.
 There is no way to definitely prove one's cultural world view, there they are fragile human constructs and must be maintained.
 Clinging to a cultural worldview and self-esteem buffer the anxiety connected to thoughts of mortality.
 When thoughts of death are salient, humans are drawn to their cultural world view which "stipulates appropriate social requirements, and standards for valued conduct, while instilling one's life with meaning, order and permanence."
The Institute for Creation Research (ICR) is a Creationist apologetics institute in Dallas, Texas that specializes in media promotion of pseudoscientific creation science and interpretation of the Genesis creation narrative as a historical event.
 The ICR adopts the Bible as an inerrant and literal documentary of scientific and historical fact as well as religious and moral truths, and espouses a Young Earth creationist worldview.
 It rejects evolutionary biology, which it views as a corrupting moral and social influence and threat to religious belief.
 The ICR was formed by Henry M. Morris in 1972 following an organizational split with the Creation Science Research Center (CSRC).
In Ahmadiyya Islam, Jihad is a radical concept.
 It is primarily one's personal inner and outer struggle for self-purification.
 Armed struggle or military exertion is the only to be used in defense.
 However, even then it can only be carried out under the direct instruction of a Caliph, purely for the sake of God and the preservation of religion.
 It is not permissible that jihad be used to spread Islam violently or for political motives, or that it be waged against a government that maintains religious freedom.
 Political conflicts (even from a defensive stand) over independence, land and resources or reasons other than religious belief cannot be termed jihad.
 There is a clear distinction, in Ahmadi theology, between Jihad (striving) and "qitāl" or "jihad bil-saif" (fighting).
 While Jihad may involve fighting, not all fighting can be called Jihad.
 Rather, according to Ahmadiyya belief, "qitāl" or military jihad is applicable, only as a defensive measure in very strictly defined circumstances and those circumstances do not exist at present.
The government of the Soviet Union followed an unofficial policy of state atheism, aiming to gradually eliminate religious belief within its borders.
 While it never officially made religion illegal, the state nevertheless made great efforts to reduce the prevalence of religious belief within society.
 To this end, at various times in its history it engaged in anti-religious persecutions of varying intensity and methodology.
 Believers were never officially attacked for being believers, but they were officially attacked for real or perceived political opposition to the state and to its policies.
 These attacks, however, in the broader ideological context were ultimately meant to serve the ultimate goal of eliminating religion, and the perceived political opposition acted as a legal pretext to carry this out.
 Thus, although the Soviet Union was officially a secular state and guaranteed freedom of religion in its constitutions, in practice believers suffered discrimination and were widely attacked for promoting religion.
Young Earth creationism (YEC) is a form of creationism, a religious belief which holds that the universe, Earth, and all life on Earth were created by direct acts of God less than 10,000 years ago.
 Its primary adherents are Christians who subscribe to a literal interpretation of the creation narrative in the Bible's Book of Genesis and believe that God created the Earth in six 24-hour days.
 In contrast to YEC, old Earth creationism is the belief in a metaphorical interpretation of the Book of Genesis and the scientifically-determined estimated ages of the Earth and Universe.
Progressive creationism (see for comparison intelligent design) is the religious belief that God created new forms of life gradually over a period of hundreds of millions of years.
 As a form of Old Earth creationism, it accepts mainstream geological and cosmological estimates for the age of the Earth, some tenets of biology such as microevolution as well as archaeology to make its case.
 In this view creation occurred in rapid bursts in which all "kinds" of plants and animals appear in stages lasting millions of years.
 The bursts are followed by periods of stasis or equilibrium to accommodate new arrivals.
 These bursts represent instances of God creating new types of organisms by divine intervention.
 As viewed from the archaeological record, progressive creationism holds that "species do not gradually appear by the steady transformation of its ancestors; [but] appear all at once and "fully formed."
 The view rejects macroevolution, claiming it is biologically untenable and not supported by the fossil record, and it rejects the concept of universal descent from a last universal common ancestor.
 Thus the evidence for macroevolution is claimed to be false, but microevolution is accepted as a genetic parameter designed by the Creator into the fabric of genetics to allow for environmental adaptations and survival.
 Generally, it is viewed by proponents as a middle ground between literal creationism and evolution.
The Maintenance of Religious Harmony Act ("MRHA") is a Singapore statute which, according to its long title, provides for the maintenance of religious harmony, for the establishment of a Presidential Council for Religious Harmony ("PCRH"), and for matters connected therewith.
 The Act, which was passed on 9 November 1990 and came into force on 31 March 1992, empowers the Minister for Home Affairs to make a restraining order against a person who is in a position of authority in any religious group or institution if the Minister is satisfied that the person has committed or is attempting to commit any of the following acts: causing feelings of enmity, hatred, ill-will or hostility between different religious groups; or promoting a political cause, carrying out subversive activities, or exciting disaffection against the President or the Government under the guise of propagating or practising a religious belief.
 A restraining order may also be made against a person who incites, instigates or encourages any religious leader or any religious group or institution to commit the above acts; or a person who is not a religious leader who causes or attempts to cause feelings of enmity, hatred, ill-will or hostility between different religious groups.
 A restraining order made against a religious leader may direct that he or she must obtain the permission of the Minister before addressing members of any religious group or institution, assisting or contributing to religious publications, or holding office in the editorial board or committee of such publications.
 Breaching a restraining order is a criminal offence.
