My second article since I became a writer for Suite101.com has just been published.  Like the last one, it has to do with skepticism – evidence based critical thinking, a form of epistemology many nonreligious ascribe to.  This article is about Skepticism and the Art of Magic.  I have been interested in the art of magic since I was little.  I have also practiced the art as an amateur magician throughout my life, as well as performing here and there professionally.  Through my study of magic I have found that the knowledge of how to fool and skepticism go hand in hand.  This new article discusses that link.

Like many atheists, I am a skeptic – one who accepts of rejects factual claims by evidence based critical reasoning.  I recently became a writer for Suite101.com.  My first article is a short primer on some basics of skepticism.  Although not inclusive of every single important aspect of skepticism, it is a good primer for those interested in either what skepticism is or starting the road towards becoming a skeptic.  If you’re interested, check it out.
