I’m a science teacher at a high school, and with your permission, I’d love to Display these “10 Commandments” in class (Credited to you obviously)! HOpefully this’ll teach some kids to think more critically and not just gobble up information from “Authority Figures” (Myself included!)
As a Christian, I think these are great. I think it’s a perfectly acceptable approach to Bible Study as well. I’m starting a series called Skeptics Corner on my blog. I think I’ll add this to the preamble if that’s okay with you.
These are great quick guidelines to think skeptically.
Thanks Liminality, as Carl Sagan said: “If we don’t ask skeptical questions, aren’t skeptical of those in authority…then we’re up for grabs”.
