Poem: No poem, Jason tortures Steve with Spanish instead 

Statement of the Whole: Is all truth relative, or are there some things that all men can agree upon?  The implications of this issue on education cannot be overstated.  If all truth is relative to the individual, or to culture, or anything, then education cannot cultivate wisdom and virtue, because it cannot assert any one thing as wise or virtuous.  With adept skill, C.S. Lewis brought this to bear in his small work, The Abolition of Man.  Jason and Steve talk their way through his insights in this podcast review of Lewis’ work.
