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.
