Proposal for a pseudoscience forum

[Justtristo]

I propose that a forum be created for the discussion of pseudoscience such as the following; creationism (in all it's various forms), astrology, Quantum mysticism, phrenology, parapsychology, Naturopathy and so forth. Also that any pseudoscience threads that have been already been created be moved into this forum, particularly if they are in the various science forums.

Anyone who makes a thread that isn't about mocking any of those will put it into the 'actual science' forums.

We should create a "Skepticism and Pseudoscience" forum, I think it's a good idea.

I third that. Hope that dosen't detract from the proposal.

Not at all, the decision is ultimately up to the people who run this site.

That's the equivalent of putting bibles in the fiction section of the library I like it

I would think so.. Nowhere else for it to go really.

The science section.
We could discuss the pseudo science in a scientific way (maybe)

[ib.me.ub]

Umm, it might just be me, but do 'Skepticism and Pseudoscience' go together? If they do, can someone explain this to me.

Edit: Ok, so its because pseudoscience hasen't any scientific basis, thus causing people to be skeptical.

Ideal piece of pseudo science here.

A growing number of celebrities are being spotted with a distinctive silicone band on their wrists. While users claim it can help with balance, critics dismiss it as unscientific hocus pocus.
