True education of children in today's world is about opening their minds to respecting all perspectives, not lending them the wisdom of the hard left alone. Pour a cup(s) of coffee and hear this slate of thinkers make the case.

It's time to move from certainty to confidence.
Many people know that probabilities range from 0 to 1, inclusive. Particularly when it comes to heated issues, one way to think about this is that 0 means it's *impossible* you're right and 1 means it's *certain* you're right.

Truth is a process not a final destination.
The former requires humility and curiosity. The latter dogmatic certainty.
There's always more nuance and wisdom to discover, through empathy and reason.
