Skeptical Odysseys: Through a Glass Darkly

“To doubt everything and to believe everything are two equally convenient solutions; each saves us from thinking.” -Henri Poincaré

To live honestly requires humble questioning of one’s beliefs. When a person is unwilling to interrogate cherished assumptions and paradigms, stubborn convictions may limit growth and stifle deeper understandings. Yet, skepticism carries risks. Reckless doubt can obliterate solid ground and send one spiraling into a black hole of chaos and folly.

Join our yearlong odyssey through perils and triumphs of skeptical inquiry, moments when skepticism and belief collide. Guided by inquisitive leaders in the arts, humanities, natural sciences, and social sciences--thinkers who dare to question--the journey will surely deliver surprises as well as insights. Of that, you can be certain.
