Okay, I would really appreciate some help. Could you give me some thought provoking questions for a religiously addled, child's mind? Questions that don't point directly at the fallacy of religion, but hint at it and cause the person to draw their ...

I think it's safe to say it I this group. Much of the enthusiasm I've felt upon seeing a growing group of atheists and agnostics is waning. I really looked forward to interacting with rational, and skeptical people, but a lot of posts and comments ...

Innate? or learned? I never bought the Sunday school story as a child, in spite of my mother being very active in the church, and a biblical scholar. As a teenager, I started reading about other religions and philosophy. I was always good at ...

Is it just my imagination or does the whole site seem to be becoming a haven for nitwits espousing ridiculous bullshit? I don't want to elaborate on the nonsense, but I can't be the only person seeing it, right?

The center for inquiry is suing CVS for selling homeopathic treatments. What do you think of the video? I agree with it, but it isn't kind to people who may think that homeopathic remedies work, plus I don't think that they explained the dilution ...

Curious how US skeptics feel about this viewpoint. I am English so my slant on things may be somewhat skewed. From here I see what seems to be a general shifting in the US from what was deeply held as a strong founding principle- the separation of ...

What do you all think about the number of people on Agnostic.com that support various kinds of woo? The ones who talk about energy healing, essential oils, Reiki, naturopathy, etc. Should we call them out on their posts for being poor skeptics? ...

Hey all, new to this group, but not to skepticism. I've noticed a huge uptick in woo peddling making the rounds on the site. The usual shit like vitamins, unproven cures, conspiracy theories, etc. It's somehow a bit unsettling to know that even ...

On skepticism. Do you think it harder to be skeptical in the information age? I am quite literally holding the potential to access the entirety of human knowledge in my hands. I can, by merely voicing the request, learn anything that has ever been...
