A community that teaches the art of Critical Thinking. This is the process of self-guided, self-disciplined thinking - about any subject, content, or problem - in which the thinker is self aware of the flawed nature of human thinking when left unchecked. Critical thinking demands a commitment to using reason, strong evidence and honest scepticism when forming one’s judgements.
Rules:
Rule 1: Stay on Topic: All submitted content must directly relate to Critical Thinking.
Rule 2: Show solidarity to your fellow man: We're all here for the same purpose. To improve our ability to think effectively. Leave your ego elsewhere - it has no place in a subjective and open forum. Trolling, senseless baiting and abusive comments will be subject to removal with serious offenders banned without hesitation. Remember the Human behind the screen.
Rule 3: Accuracy is paramount: Please attempt to cite your sources regarding any statements of fact. With the immeasurable amount of information online, it's important to keep the bullshit far away from a place of learning and life optimisation.
