Typically on RD we aim our
skepticism towards claims that are religious in nature. But for this RD
extra we focus instead on some of the more common targets for skeptics:
alternative medicine, the paranormal, and other fringe claims. It was
all for the Pseudoscience Fair, an event organized by the CFI On Campus
group at Grand Valley State University. What you will hear first is Luke
Galen on the psychology behind pseudoscientific beliefs and followed by
Jeremy Beahan on how to distinguish between genuine science and
pseudoscience. Then at the end there is a brief panel discussion between
Jeremy, Luke and Dr. Paul Critelli (a psychiatrist, Magician and
mentalist who currently lives in the West Michigan Area). Thanks for
listening, we'll be back next week with episode 60 of Reasonable Doubts.
Reasonable Doubts: Your skeptical guide to religion offering news and
commentary of interest to skeptics, atheists, humanists, apologists
looking for a challenge and freethinkers of all persuasions.
