But Why? (some thoughts from Erricker and Bellchambers p195) It is about developing and supporting one’s own beliefs and values and enquiring into those of others. In doing this we gain a greater understanding of ourselves and the world we live in. As a result we make more rational choices and come to recognise how and why others choose to live in ways different to our own. The subject makes a significant contribution to negotiating our collective futures and dispelling ignorance.
