What is the "fact-value dichotomy" that emerged in the Enlightenment and lies at the foundation of modern Western culture? What
are its premises, and what impact did it have on Christianity? Finally, does this dichotomy provide insight on how your own future career might be viewed by the broader Western culture?
The "fact-value dichotomy" that emerged from the Enlightenment was the use of reason against the factors that built the old regime, such as the absolutist monarchy, the deprivation of commercial freedoms and the use of religion to respond to human difficulties. This impacted Christianity because it caused people to abandon the temples and the offerings provided to find a solution to their economic, social and political problems, preferring to seek solutions through study and science.
This caused the Christian church to lose much of its power and influence and reduced its economic condition.
This dichotomy shows how my future career should be based on the search for information and constant improvement, which will allow society to see it more widely and allow me to have a much better future.
