The following program has been carefully designed to make you think.
We have chosen subjects, topics and stories pulled from the current week of scientific publication…
This content can be considered challenging or even dangerous to certain beliefs.
If you subscribe to any of the many thousands of common false beliefs
You may find that science regularly refutes things you thought to be true.
This is not intentional, but cannot be avoided because…
God, the Illuminati, aliens, and bigfoot all got together and planned it that way.
That doesn’t mean that Flat Earthers can’t hang around, though the Flat Mooners should really leave now.
Seriously, even the Astrology crowd doesn’t believe you.
And they think all of space is flat!
Creationists continue to claim that they have not evolved…
And the old arguments they consistently put forward show that to be somewhat true.
The racists, the conspiracy theorists, the misogynistic enthusiasts…
All base their ideas on false facts and uncritical thinking.
Still, extreme caution is advised for anyone maintaining such thoughts
Especially those that can easily be refuted by facts.
As those beliefs are considered highly combustible and should not be placed in close proximity to children with matches or questions.
And definitely, you will want to keep such ideas safely hidden away from the open flame of critical inquiry that is
