The John Templeton Foundation funds research on the topic of religion. While some of their funded studies are worthwhile (their classical intercessory prayer study, for example, in which prayer was essentially debunked), however, their efforts are geared toward finding answers to the "Big Questions", i.e. God.
This link presents the positive effects of "Awe", the "Seventh Emotion."
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.
