The Importance of Absolute Truth

The need for boys to understand and believe in absolute truth is emphasized as critical for their development into strong men. The speakers argue that without this belief, boys risk becoming adrift in a culture that often promotes relativism. They reflect on their own upbringing, highlighting a stark contrast where truth was clearly defined as black and white, unlike the current narrative that morality and truth can be subjective. This fundamental belief in absolute truth is presented as essential for guiding young men toward a purposeful and principled life.
