Culture through unbiased eyes

Culture is unique to each individual, even those that live in the same one; everyone has a different interpretation as well as different rituals within that culture.  Take the United States; one could say that the U.S. has an American culture, but within that culture people practice very different rituals.  A person from Utah looks at life differently than someone that lives in New York.  If these two people were to meet, many of their cultural interpretations would probably differ.  For example, their views on abortion could be opposites; one person agrees that abortion should be illegal, while the other disagrees.  But who is right?  And that is the ultimate question that no one can agree upon.  Is there a way to see issues from an unbiased standpoint?

I don't believe there is a way to see through unbiased eyes; I don't believe that culture can be factored out--it will always be an influence.  For example for myself, I do my best to see both sides of the big issues in society today.  But even if I believe I am being unbiased, how do I truly know?  Many of my viewpoints were influenced by my parents and I share similar viewpoints with them today.  That is not to say that I agree with all of them; I have some that differ from my dad's.  In mass media today, I believe that most of the news is biased in some form; even the outlets that try to be unbiased.  Messages are most likely framed in some form or another.  It just isn't possible; cultural influences cannot be escaped.
