The author of this article, C. D. Cunningham, is LDS and has written many LDS faith-promoting articles—nothing wrong with that, but something to keep in mind when evaluating the author's positionality.
I believe that bias is an inherent aspect of human cognition and that it is deeply embedded in our DNA. I also feel that we should consciously acknowledge our biases when engaging in the evaluation of research and the exploration of novel ideas. Such awareness can foster greater objectivity and critical reflection, which hopefully will enhance the integrity of our inquiries.
Biases are a well-known and accepted condition that must be accounted for in honest research. I learned about this during my doctoral studies. In my dissertation, I was required to have a section where I listed my background and biases to assist readers in evaluating my research and conclusions.
