Truth used to be something we argued about. 

Now we can’t even agree on what it is. 

In a world of fake news and alternate facts, we each claim our personal truth, our own competing version of reality.

So, how does science, religion, and philosophy help us navigate truth when certainty is elusive?

What does it mean to live in a time when truth itself feels fractured? When the world is so complex – that we yearn for trust as much as truth?  

And how do we navigate moral or epistemic disagreement without falling into hostility or relativism?
