The Richard Dawkins Foundation has produced a video called “The Baloney Detection Kit” that tells you how to know if the information your getting is any good or not & since I haven't posted much lately about atheist topics here you are:
“With a sea of information coming at us from all directions, how do we sift out the misinformation and bogus claims, and get to the truth? Michael Shermer of Skeptic Magazine lays out a "Baloney Detection Kit," ten questions we should ask when encountering a claim.”

Hey thanks for posting that!! So often fundie people will just refuse to hear anything coming from a scientist because they believe scientists just have opinions, they have no understanding of the rigorous processes involved, and no understanding of even basic terms sometimes, such as 'theory.' This is a great video that explains the scientific perspective in a reasonable and nonconfrontational manner... more people need to see it :)
I thought it was good for people to see it. Thanks for reading the blog.
