Every belief system is a compression algorithm. The danger is believing the compression is reality.

Faith may remove ambiguity. Ideology may remove complexity. Certainty may remove doubt. But every filter also creates blind spots.

The goal is not to examine reality without a framework. It is to notice what your framework discards.

Ask: • What does this belief help me explain? • What does it prevent me from seeing? • Which contradictions have I agreed to ignore?

A worldview should organize experience without becoming immune to correction.

What fact would force you to rebuild your framework, or would you defend the framework instead?
