If you are like me, you tend to ruminate over negative thoughts. Science shows that such thinking only makes your well-being worse. Following are some links supporting the concept of habitually looking at yourself objectively when confronted with a person, idea, or situation that evokes negative emotions:
Speaking to Yourself in the Third Person Makes You Wiser
To De-stress, Talk to Yourself in the Third Person
Sam Harris and Mindfulness
This strategy can also be helpful after a religious person turns away from such, in conjunction with formal therapy perhaps (link).
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.
