What is really going on…
Is a real thing…
Everyone may have views or opinions.
These views and opinions can be shaped and formed and influenced and manipulated and solidified like a lump of children’s playdough…
However, let us never forget or even imagine that truth is an opinion.
That facts depend on a point of view.
There is a reality of the world that is beyond human perception.
Not invisible to the mind, but beyond ability of its doughy design to dismiss.
Reality goes on…
with or without human words or actions…
And while we head into a future free from the foundations of logic
One where reality will be a near constant casualty
You will begin to hear people asking more and more often
What is really going on?
And when you hear this question asked…
Even if you yourself are unsure of the answer…
Reassure them that Yes… reality is going on…
And it is still being discussed openly and honestly here on
This Week in Science…
Coming Up Next.
Science Gets Policy
The House and now the Senate have approved the 21st Century Cures Act, and sent it to the President for signing.
