What happens when a culture decides that reality is something we can create for ourselves?

In this episode, I’m joined by Frank Turek and Phoenix Hayes, authors of the new book The War on Reality, to talk about the ideas that have radically changed the way our culture understands truth, morality, identity, human nature, and even reality itself. We discuss questions like:

• What are the basic “rules of reality”?
• Why there’s no such thing as “your reality” and “my reality”
• What syncretism is (and why so many Christians fall prey to it)
• How postmodernism changed Western culture
• The oppressor/oppressed worldview and cultural Marxism
• Why believing people are basically good has enormous spiritual consequences
• Why Christians and secular culture increasingly seem to be operating from completely different premises
• How AI can reinforce our biases and personalize reality
