Exposing the Cracks, Part 4: Self-Refutation and the Death of Relativism
When a Belief System Cancels Itself Out Introduction Some beliefs don’t need to be disproven—because they disprove themselves. These are known as self-refuting claims.

When people are confronted with serious flaws in their belief, especially contradictions, unjustified assumptions, or logical consequences they can’t accept; it’s not uncommon to see the conversation take a sharp turn.

Why Contradictions Matter: Exposing the Cracks in Broken Worldviews
In a time when subjective preferences are often treated as truth, and consistency is sacrificed on the altar of personal autonomy, it’s more important than ever to revisit a foundational principle of rational thought: contradictions are always wrong.
