Why is our society so divided? In this series we look at what is real today. This sounds simple, but it can be confusing. We tackle issues like the Right / Left divide in America, how we find and know what is real, and some scarier issues like the looming prospect of further unrest, and possible civil war in the country. Mix in some classical thought and it can be quite enlightening.

Plato's Allegory of the Cave

Ever notice the divide in our country?  Of course you have.  But why are we so divided?  In order to understand that I think we need to take a look at how we comprehend reality itself.  Because, I have noticed that many of my friends view what is real, what is true, differently than I do.  Not that I'm right, or they are right, but how can intelligent people have such radically different views of reality?  

This episode takes a look at one of the first discussions of this topic.  I explore Plato's analogy of the Cave.  And I try to make some sense of this divide.
