					<span>Truth and the pursuit of truth are important for at least 3 reasons. 1) false statements, if they are believed and acted upon, will yield contradictory and absurd results; 2) one who does not pursue the truth will end up lying each time he can benefit from it and will be trusted only by the gullible; and 3) a generalized disregard for truth undermines the minimum social capital of trust necessary for prosperity and liberty.</span>
