What if many of the rules we rely on to understand life are human-made—and still fall short of explaining it? On Abstract Essay , writer and thinker John Bliss explores questions of meaning, history, faith, reason, and the search for truth beyond familiar assumptions. Drawing on his work in history and mechanical engineering, years in business, and a long process of writing, John discusses the ideas behind his book, The False Paradigms of Today and The Timeless Truth of Tomorrow . The conversation examines his skepticism toward institutions and idealism, his interest in dreams and mystical experience, and the ways historical patterns continue to shape the present. John also considers the tension between individual identity and humanity's shared story, how noble ideas can become harmful when treated as unquestionable, and whether people can find meaning without relying on a fixed rule book. This episode invites listeners to test assumptions, sit with difficult questions, and think beyond the obvious.
