That is the question! I refer to the fallacy by that name which essentially means “you too” and is also known as the fallacy of “appeal to hypocrisy”. It is a diversionary tactic in debate, and it is a fallacy not only for that reason but also because the opponent’s alleged guilt is no proof… Continue reading»
There’s nothing like peer pressure and shame culture to stifle what is loosely called “free thinking”. As people have always done, they vigorously defend “the prevailing scientific view” as what “thinking” people accept rather than clinging to outdated or backward views held in the past.

The artist M. C Escher was best known for his optical illusions involving images of ordinary things that can’t be possible in the real world. The images themselves make sense in their own self-contained way, but simply cannot exist physically. They delight the eye because of that very quality of impossibility and the great gift… Continue reading»

Evolution is NOT a theory about the origin of life Truth: Evo is all about finding a way to account for life without God, i.e. the religious philosophy of Naturalism. Pure science only observes; philosophy interprets. Philosophy is religion… Continue reading»
If you never read another article on the creation/evolution debate, read this one: Creation vs. Evolution: What our Children Need to Know It isn’t highly technical, but exactly where this debate has always belonged: it’s about world views. ADDED LATER: There are two other articles along the same lines, and well worth your time: Darwin… Continue reading»
Some Christians just don’t quite trust the Bible, yet they turn around and blindly swallow the world’s philosophy. In a cowardly attempt to justify their faith anyway, they invent theories that allow them to keep half their faith in God and the other half in man. One of the compromise theories some Christians use to… Continue reading»
