You've written down so many beliefs as features of your worldview that it is just not worth anyone's time to test whether your beliefs cohere. Maybe that's the best approach to passing off your belief system as coherent. You know, you don't need to try to write down your belief system, no matter what anyone else says about how you must have a belief system. I think a prominent feature of your belief system is that you should be able to present your belief system without contradicting yourself, whether or not you are able to do what you think you should be able to do. You don't have to compete with the likes of Jordan Peterson or Deepak Chopra to present a so-called worldview that other people will lap up as a worldview.
