The Remnant with Jonah Goldberg

NOTE

Prioritize Truth Over Ego

Institutions should be designed for self-correction, with a focus on transparency and honesty, contrasting the inadequacies observed in religious entities like the Catholic Church. The church has historically failed to correct its past views on critical social issues transparently, undermining its credibility. In contrast, science exemplifies a culture of self-correction where individuals are motivated to challenge and overturn flawed hypotheses, gaining respect for admitting errors. The ultimate value in science is the pursuit of truth, rather than personal pride or reputation, highlighting the necessity for institutions to prioritize the accurate understanding of reality over individual status.
