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.

Supernatural: What Is It And How Do You Know It Is Real?
I, and many other atheists, have said that all arguments for a god or the supernatural are arguments from ignorance. Why do we say this? Because, all we really know is within what most people call nature. The concept of supernatural is a vestige of humanity's ignorant and superstitious pre-scientific past. There is no method to test for it or to verify that there is such a thing. At the bottom, there is reality: there is the reality we know through scientific methods and there is the reality that is presently unknown. Nothing is added to knowledge by believing in any supernatural force or being.
