If we can get rid of the cluttered thoughts, we just might get somewhere.
Quite soon The First Part of The Philosophical Hack: The Concluding Unscientific Postscript to Event will be published. The truth of the situation is that the notion of our “post-truth”, or the incredulity involved with not knowing how to discern what is true, is itself true. So, what does that mean? It means that the theoreticians which would back-step to… Continue reading What is The Truth?
In this Era of Prehistory, everything gets turned on its head, just like in the Pirate's of the Caribbean movie...
