"As a philosophy scientific skepticism is also anti-ideology. It is a
system of methods rather than a system of beliefs, and those methods
include doubt, self-criticism, and the provisional nature of all
knowledge. In fact, in its purest form scientific skepticism holds no
beliefs, only the application of methods that form an approach to
knowledge. It does not even require the rejection of the supernatural,
only adherence to methodological naturalism because science cannot
function otherwise. Scientific skepticism is agnostic toward any
particular beliefs."

Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
