We live in a time of great anxiety over the role of truth in public life. Media and popular culture are saturated with concerns over “fake news,” alternative facts and conspiracy theories. There is widespread concern over the breakdown of integrity, HONESTY and trust in public figures and the so-called experts, ...
There is the increasing difficulty of distinguishing between true and false claims, and the increasing willingness of predators to take advantage of this confusion.
There has been a widespread abandoning of the idea of universal or absolute truth from numerous segments of the culture. Secular relativists, New Age, neo-pagan, and postmodern thinkers all assault by argument or accusation those who claim any certainty about truth. On the one hand, there are plenty of people who live their lives passionately defending their “absolutes” that reflect personal bias & opinion level assertions meanwhile truths that can be defended rationally are hypocritically ignored. All the while. the number of people in the United States who believe in the existence of God, the deity of Christ, and the resurrection of Christ is staggering.
But maybe the number of people who believe in absolutes over relativism, gravitating towards a code of some sort, might actually be growing.
In this episode of Keep It 100, we will carry on this critical conversation on Absolutes, Ultimate Truth and have a guest interview with prophetic voice and critical thinker Katia Adams.
