Can False Things Foster Adaptive Process?

A clip from a Weinstein/Heying interview

“We have to get over the idea that any of us are free from using metaphorical truths because it’s such a key to human functionality.” I found this whole interview interesting, but I think the clip beginning at 2:10:10 (youtube.com/watch?v=eisR87dHRl8&t=7811s) and continuing to about 2:16:28 is really valuable. I’m posting it here partly so I can direct my students in my History of World Religions class to watch it for our discussion this week. I tried making the video below begin at that point but failed.
