Teaching skepticism
October 2, 2016 at 11:44 pm
Every so often in my daily life I try to slip people better critical thinking skills.  I find myself prompting people with, 'how do you know that is true?' or, 'what's your source on that?' when they present information.

Do any of you have any favorite go-to prompts or skeptic lessons for people?
