Episode 50 in my Open College with Dr. Stephen Hicks podcast series. Many rejections of objectivity assume from the outset an impossible standard for humans to achieve. Don’t do that.
“It’s often said that we live in a ‘post-truth’ age, that nothing can be known with any certainty, and that we must give up notions of objectivity and certainty.
