"Those who take refuge behind theological barbed wire fences, quite often wish they could have more freedom of thought, but fear the change to the great ocean of scientific truth as they would a cold bath plunge" LUTHER BURBANK
"Perhaps the whole root of our trouble, the human trouble, is that we will sacrifice all the beauty of our lives, will imprison ourselves in totems, taboos, crosses, blood sacrifices, steeples, mosques, races, armies, flags, nations, in order to deny the fact of death, which is the only fact we have" JAMES BALDWIN
I am not possessed, I am not unfulfilled, I am not unhappy and I am not filled with unreasonable hatred....I am just a concerned person of logic!
I actively advocate for reason and logic, for a world not overwhelmed with superstition, with divisiveness, with false claims and false promises.
The idea behind this advocacy of mine is not derail anyone or convert anyone (awkward). I am not out to convince you or influence you to leave what you are....not at all. I am not a bully nether do i have any desire to impose my opinions or ways of thinking on you. That will be totally against what i am about.
My aim is to protect you...yes...PROTECT you.
We live in a society that has a succulent breast which all sorts of irrationality suck from. What I try to do with my thoughts are to help people identify misinformation from miles away, arm you with a baloney detecting kit, a misinformation radar, inoculate you against all forms of woo and pseudoscience....that is all...that is all.
And we will all be happy together and have a better world to pass on to our children.
Great article
