The Skeptics' Circle VIII

The Eighth Edition of the Skeptics' Circle has been posted at Pharyngula. As I had hoped, it is a veritable feast of skeptical blogging, a great antidote to the credulity that permeates the blogosphere. Heck, it's more than a feast, it's a multi-course gourmet banquet, the biggest and most extensive edition yet. PZ even includes a couple of entries the arguments in which he himself is--shall we say?--skeptical about. However, in the spirit of unflinching skepticism, he presents them anyway, confident that the reader will be able to evaluate for him or herself whether they meet adequate standards of skepticism and reason.

Go and learn why intelligent design is neither intelligent nor design and why irrational beliefs are leading to a resurgence of previously eradicated diseases, among other things....

It's probably going to take me through the weekend to check out all the great skeptical blogging there.
