What happens to truth, faith, and freedom in a world where technology is reshaping reality itself?

In this episode of Common-X, we sit down with Dr. Owen Anderson, professor of philosophy and religious studies, to explore some of the most urgent questions facing modern civilization:• Is philosophy being replaced by ideology?• Can truth survive without free speech?• What does separation of church and state actually mean?• Does artificial intelligence challenge the idea of God or the soul?• And what happens to religion if technology allows humans to live forever?This conversation goes beyond politics and theology into something deeper — how societies decide what is real, what is allowed to be said, and what ultimately gives life meaning.If AI becomes more intelligent, institutions lose trust, and death is no longer inevitable…What does it mean to be human?This episode is for thinkers, skeptics, believers, technologists, and anyone questioning where civilization is headed next.👇 Join the conversation.
