7:23 I find the philosophy behind their method very convincing. However, how does the statement that "no one has a monopoly on truth" hold in the face of certain scientific truths, such as climate change? It sounds like this philosophy would render scientific truths impossible. Do I get it right and it is incompatible with each other, or is there a way to harmonize them? Or, for example, does she refer to world views, rather than scientific truths?
Is something wrong with the audio? I got a completely unrelated dialogue when I tried to play the video.
Keep watching - it's related.
