Every thoughtful person must ask, "What do I know?" The two most
explosive fields, religion and politics, are notably filled with
strident and conflicting claims. Close analysis in clear language
reveals that no one knows what he or she is talking about. Because
of the challenge of unexamined assumptions, of unclear
cause-and-effect relationships, and of the rarity of reliable
sources, a person who wants to be open-minded cannot avoid adopting
skepticism as the least embarrassing philosophy. Some discoveries
made in this book: *Reason appears to prove nothing *Intuition is
probably a delusion *Facts are slippery *Religious people yearn for
suicide *Why socialism cannot work *Where conservatives screwed up
badly (as they admit) *The equation STAR+2R+R3=GPS explains the
cultural history of the world *Shakespeare was a skeptic *Dante's
curious insight into love *Passing the Magic Johnson test *Tom De
Lay does not realize that relativism is as American as apple pie
*Hamlet, who never existed, is more real than you or I. Here is a
sample observation: "People believe in God because the Bible tells
all about him, and they believe in the Bible because God wrote or
inspired it. This is a classic case of the Fallacy of Circular
Reasoning."
