We scientifically and humanistically oriented folks can see clearly the faulty thinking of magical thinkers. However, history shows that it is very difficult to change the thinking process of those with whom we disagree.

While I and others may differ on the groupings, I think it covers pretty much the full political thought of the country.
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.
