This is the first forum I've joined in about 8 years. Reading Carl Sagan in my teens is why I put my faith in sceptical enquiry and the scientific method.
I hope to engage in debates about interesting subjects so I can refine my own beliefs about the world around me.
Speak soon...
Carl Sagan was the guy I discovered at 16 who rescued me from the lost track of mysticism I was chasing after I lost my Christian faith. His dictum, "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof," is a guidepost in critical thinking, to my mind.
