POST TO SOME SKEPTICS:
You skeptics seems to feel that blindly believing people like Michael Shermer, Sam Harris & Amazing Randi proves that you are critical thinkers. What a joke!!!
CRITICAL THINKING MEANS YOU DO NOT BLINDLY BELIEVE ((( ANYONE )))
Critical thinking would be standing up in your science classroom and boldly saying to the teacher:
'Let me get this straight. You want me to completely deny my empirical senses that tell me the sun goes around the Earth and blindly believe you because YOU know the truth? Heck, I won't do that for religion and I sure as hell am NOT going to do that for you!!'
As far as the Earth being round: 'The Earth is flat where I live and on the property where this school exists. If the Earth is round where you live...that must be terribly inconvenient!'
As far as history: 'What proof do you have that this history you are teaching me is absolutely accurate? It seems to me that people may have exaggerated and left out things about human history in the Bible. Why should I trust that you, and your kind, are not doing the essential same in order to make us believe whatever you want us to believe?'
Now, that's critical thinking and it is something you blind faith skeptics refuse to do!!!
