Allies in the Struggle Against the Post-Truth Swarm
Unless we presuppose a commitment to truth and reason, averred Plato, we end up in mania. In other words, we go crazy.

This article advances the thesis that, in our post-truth cultural context, theologians should ally with scientists to battle the enemies of truth. | ||
