Chapter I. Introduction: This session covers the following content: Information bombards us daily, but what is the truth? Utilizing a quote by Stephen Jay Gould equips us with discernment to find the right answer: “First, facts do not come to us as objective items seen in the same unambiguous way by all reasonable people.  Theory, habit, prejudice, and culture all influence the facts we choose to observe and how we perceive them.”  This quote will serve as our guiding principle throughout the CW&O series, helping us navigate the complex world of information and discern the truth.
