Intro to neoBuddhist Epistemology
The Michael Shermer Show # 439We often assume that religious beliefs are no different in kind from ordinary conventional beliefs―that believing in the existence of God is akin to believing that May comes before June.

A critique of The Ideological Subversion of Science
This dialogue covers what seems to be mostly conservative talking points on science and higher education institutions. It’s interesting to note that [DJAC] seems to be part of a group of right wing science trolls, the website that Jerry posted his paper on, seems to be a poorly made knockoff of Skeptic magazine that is […]

Purpose in the Eyes of an LDS Psychiatrist
This is a critique of the conversation between Michael Shermer and Samuel T. Wilkinson, around his book “Purpose” Purpose in the Eyes of a Psychiatrist.
