Episode 9.06: Why truth is the first casualty of our inability to say many things at once.

Because we cannot say many things at once and must by the nature of our intellectual framework, put one word in front of another in a sequence, we inevitably appear to prioritise some things over others. The things we say first things or we say last, wherever it may be, assume predominance, but what we really want is to be able to do is to say many things at once and because we can’t truth tends to be the first casualty because we latch onto one thing and make more of it than we should. We should all resolve, rather than taking it out of the context in which it occurs, take the whole and scruple it up again into a ball with multiple dimensions before we try to make sense of it.
