This web site is dedicated to the eradication of irrational thinking.
Rationalists are those, whose thinking is strictly guided by the laws of logic.
Rationalists only accept as true, that which has been proven to be true,
through the application of the scientific method.

Sinclair Broadcasting is "the top US television broadcast group"
and they actively work to promote the conservative agenda.
They are attempting to increase their influence by acquiring Tribune Media.
But in a move that has left me puzzled, FCC Chairman Ajit Pai,
who in the past has labored in the service of Sinclair Broadcasting,
surprised everyone by proposing that the matter be referred to an administrative law judge.
The move could result in a lengthy delay and could effectively kill the deal.
Sinclair - Tribune deal is dead ... for now
Time will reveal what's really going on; but my spider-senses ...
are tingling

Conservative political commentator George Will warned Republicans about Trump in April of 2017 (7:02)

Panspermia (the theory that life began on Earth after arriving from outer space)
Another classic Novella take-down
It is definitely worth the time (great training) to watch how Novella destroys this guy's argument.
This guy wasn't some religious nut or political "useful idiot" - but a well-qualified scientist;
which is what makes this dissection all that much more impressive.
Even scientists are vulnerable to irrationality when they allow their egos to outgrow their brains.

I would like to see a breakdown by political affiliation.
I am curious to see if there are ANY Republicans on the list.

On the same day that Russian agent Maria Butina was indicted,
the NRA pressured Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin to ...
legalize 'dark money'
Republicans no longer even bother to try to hide their treason.
The only explanation for that, is that they know ...
that they OWN their base of idiots

Here is a comparison (13 pages) between
the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights v.
The Republican Party platform
Human rights don't even register as an issue in the Republican party;
which is not surprising once you understand
that their singular purpose is to transfer as much wealth as possible
from the masses ... into the pockets of the rich.
