Often times when I've read about Fi vs Fe, it usually involves something about Fi being based on an "internal value system", while Fe is based on more of an "external value system". What exactly is meant by "external" value system?
Here's a personal example - I am a very devout Catholic. I accept all the doctrines and teachings of the church, and that is the essence of my value system. While I did initially question things, after extensive research and hearing testimonies from other people, I came to the conclusion that it is true, and I am very loyal to it's traditions. Also, to me, morals and truths are objective, not subjective. I believe in a universal moral code that applies to all people. I am completely against the mindset of "moral relativism", that morals vary depending on the person. So would that be considered more of an external value system, or an internal one?
Just looking for a little clarification here.
