Ethnocentricity
ethnocentricity, ethnicity
It can lead to discrimination based on a difference of beliefs.
Maybe some are, but a good missionary would know that all people are equal in the eyes of God and all have sinned. So to think that your own ethnic or cultural group is centrally important, and that all other groups are measured in relation to your own (ethnocentricity) is not correct thinking, especially for a missionary
Ethnocentricity poses a significant danger as it leads individuals or groups to view their own culture as superior while dismissing or devaluing other cultures. This mindset can foster prejudice, discrimination, and conflict, undermining social cohesion and mutual understanding. By failing to appreciate diverse perspectives, ethnocentricity hinders collaboration and can perpetuate stereotypes, ultimately stifling innovation and cultural exchange. Embracing cultural relativism, on the other hand, promotes empathy and respect, facilitating more harmonious interactions in an increasingly globalized world.
