"One of the most damning bits of criticism we atheists have of religious
believers is that many of them admit that there is no amount of evidence
that would change their mind about the various gods in which they
believe. When they ask us what would change our minds and persuade us to
believe, we are generally able to provide answers; however, many
religious believers say that there is nothing that could convince them
that they are wrong about their gods. "My mind is made up," they say,
"don't confuse me with the facts."
Of course, there are panderers in politics. THAT type of flip-floping is NOT what I am talking about. I am talking about what the article is about: the science-based thinking that is SO counter to those who are SO locked into their party, or religion, or alternative to medicine, or any other pseudoscience ideology that they can't get away from it.
Changing Our Minds
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.
