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.

Yes, I Do Realize That My Blog Will Not Change The Minds Of Most
What's on my mind? How difficult it is to change beliefs. My recent
interlocutor on my blog did make the valid statement that the evidence
is thin that preaching to the religious and other purveyors of
pseudoscience has a significant effect. So, why do I do what I do on my
blog and on Facebook? Frankly, I have had many periods of depression
over such. That said, what should I do, give up? I am just committed
to telling the truth. If that only means supporting us like-minded
folks, I will accept that as a worthy goal.

Choose how you look at reality wisely. Yes, it is a binary choice.

Seems reasonable. I don't think many of do what we do because we expect to change minds. The way I've started to look at it is that we are helping to create an oasis of reason. Some will appreciate it, and most will not.
