Intercultural Premises
I do believe in the premises of rationality, perfectibility, and mutability because we are all able to find truth through our personal logic and knowledge that we experience through others and analyzing others' ideas. As a christian, I do believe that we as humans are all born with sin and are capable of accomplishing good deeds and purity through controlling our actions. Furthermore, mutability premise assumes that human behavior is shaped by environmental factors and the ways they improve humans is to improve their physical and psychological circumstances. I believe with this theory because we as humans decide what choices we make and through those actions and behaviors, we shape our future situations. I have been able to have all of these premises be an active source in my life through Christianity, logical circumstances, and environmental situations and they all have been useful through daily situations. Certain social institutions and practices such as other cultures and religious institutions might have close connections with the rationality and perfectibility premises because of the social influence it places on intercultural atmospheres through the public or personal households.

Hi Alicia,
I am also a Christian and I agree with you that people are able to make their own decisions and basically have "free will." I think it is also good to remember that the way people were raised helps to shape the future person they will be. We all come from different backgrounds and we cannot expect that everyone follows the same types of social rules. I think that is one of the hardest things about being a Christian; we want everyone to be pure of heart and cognizant of their actions, unfortunately the world just doesn't work that way.
