The great questions we have don’t get answered by consuming more. They get answered by working them out while being willing to be wrong - and change our minds.
The term "dialog" isn't just a word for conversation. It was named for what philosophers believed it did: dia — through, across, between — and logos — word, reason, the logic that governs the universe. Dialog through the logos. - is how we find answers. Truth emerges in the space between two people willing to be honest. The power is not information. It is in the synthesis between two people thinking logically. They arrive at a third - usually better - perspective neither of them could have created on their own.
“I’m happy to have a mistaken idea of mine proved wrong. There’s nothing worse for a person than holding mistaken views about the matters we’re discussing.” — Socrates, Gorgias
