A community for Scientific Skepticism:

Scientific skepticism or rational skepticism, sometimes referred to as skeptical inquiry, is a position in which one questions the veracity of claims lacking empirical evidence.

Do not confuse this with General Skepticism, Philosophical Skepticism, or Denialism.

Things we like:

  • Civility
  • Thoughtful discussion based on evidence and facts
  • Humor

Things we don’t like:

  • Personal attacks or disrespectful attitude
  • Wild speculation on events with no evidence
  • Low-effort comments and posts

“A wise man proportions his belief to the evidence.” -David Hume
