Our culture has treated facts as narratives and truth as power. Join American sceptic Michael Shermer as he defends an ancient idea: reality exists independent of belief. Knowledge may be provisional, but it is not arbitrary. Science and reason remain our best tools for tracking a world that does not bend to ideology. Abandoning objective truth does not liberate us; it dissolves the ground for criticism, progress, and justice. Without facts, disagreement becomes noise rather than argument.
"One of our most influential intellectuals." — Robert Sapolsky
