At one time in our lives, this may have seemed like a simple task. You learned that two plus two was four, and you set off on a quest to learn and gain more knowledge. Sometime along the way, you may have realized that many people find seemingly contradictory things to be true. Or that man has many times declared truth to be found, only to later discover huge errors in their understanding. At one time, humans were quite positive that the Earth was flat and the center of the universe or that smoking made one strong and was good for a sore throat. Living in the information age, we often have endless amounts of information at our fingertips, but increasingly it feels like truth can be further away.
