Skeptics' Circle #34: the mineraliest!
EoR at The Second Sight hosts the latest iteration of the Skeptics' Circle, and this one is particularly impressive.
This one's theme involves crystals and gems. The title is "The 34th Skeptics' Circle: Critical Thinking Crystallised." Not just posts about rocks; rather, EoR uses the supposed mystical properties of gems as an organizing template, giving the meaning or use of each stone along with a cleverly apt skeptical link.
It's colorful, it's informative, it's got lots of great links, including some particular favorites of mine: The "I, Superman" post (drawing an analogy to argue where the burden of proof should lie, as between theism and atheism), linked under Amethyst in the Skeptics' Circle; and the hilariously titled "Greetings! I travelled a thousand light-years to peer up your ass!" (Blue Chalcedony). Props to plittle at Aurora Walking Vacation, and Sean at God is for Suckers! for two entertaining entries.
But don't just listen to me.
