OUTSTANDING SITES

QuackWatch, guide to health fraud by Dr. Stephen Barrett

http://www.worstpills.org/: Part of the Nader network of Public Citizen

http://skepdic.com: Contains The Skeptic Dictionary by Robert Carroll, over 460 first rate articles on all the topics of interest to a skeptic

http://skeptic.com/ the site of California’s leading skeptic organization and publication Skeptic Magazine

http://www.csicop.org/: the largest and longest established organization promoting intelligent skepticism

The Truth About Drug Companies by Marcia Angell, MD. Absolutely the best book on profits and drugs. It reveals—without being technical and tedious—big PHARMAs bull shit, while at the same time revealing the workings of the profit system and its relationship to government—and it’s available on audio CD. For chapter 6 of her book.

Skepticism, noun, the philosophical doctrine that the truth of all things must be questioned according to the best principles of science, logic, and philosophy. The result of this process of questioning is that each topic is given the degree of confidence that it deserves based upon the available evidence and reasonable conclusions drawn therefrom.

For many topics the common herd have a suitable degree of confidence; others quite unsuitable. Many of the articles on this family of websites are designed to reduce the disabuse error. The articles listed below were selected for interest, style, and importance.

1. That our federal legal closely adheres to the Bill of Rights and it sets the standard for modern jurisprudence.

2. That there is a Mohammed Whose life deeds have been recorded.

3. That there is JC A JC whose life deeds have been record.

4. That the constants in physics were carefully coordinated by a divine will so as to create this universe which is uniquely suited for sentient life.

5. That archaeology supports the biblical account of the Hebrew exodus from Egypt or their conquest of the Levant.

6. That Congress assiduously promotes the public-weal, or almost assiduously.

7. That the stock market makes an essential contribution, well worth its costs, to our economy.

8. That socialism is inherently evil.

9. That the gods prefer the religious fools.

10. That the whole Christian “enchilada” is good, and there are sound philosophical proofs for the existence of god.

11. That the Old Testament is surprisingly modern and thus lacks borrowed primitive religious elements.

12. That consciousness can only be explained in its totality by a ghost in the machine.

13. That alternative medicine has curative properties.

14. That there is a paucity of reasons for rejecting modern religions.

And there is a collection of terms and examples that aid the reader in the art of skeptical thinking, namely, works on science, philosophy, and logic. Others sites also serve an educational purpose, building a foundation of knowledge. It is through knowledge and reason that we become skeptics concerning certain beliefs of others. There are collections of articles and literary works including some of my rhymed poems, a short story by me, ancient religious works not canonized, cartoons, medical information, medical quackery, cancer & tobacco, women’s medical issues, spiritualism, literary works of noted writers critical of religion, work of noted thinkers on religion, utilitarianism, biographical notes, and articles on the ancient Greek world.
