Episode 9.01: Unmaking Sense of Truth: why “Yes, but is it true?” is usually the wrong question.

It is impossible to decide what is true unless we have first decided what we think matters, what we value, what we think worthwhile, what we think to be a life worth living. To attempt to answer the question “Yes, but is it true?” before we have answers to such questions is to condemn ourselves to a self-perpetuating sequence of deepening misconceptions and delusions. Only when we have - albeit only provisionally - decided what matters does the concept of truth begin to make sense.
