Respect My Authority!
Manage episode 440269899 series 3600844
We’re taking a little break from talking about education to discuss a logical fallacy: The Appeal to Authority. And this goes a few places we weren’t expecting.
In this episode we reference a whole lot of stuff, some of it that we’ve certainly forgotten, but you can find several links here:
- Here’s a classic Skeptic Generation call with Xeno.
- Here’s the Atheist Experience call about atoms not really looking like solar systems.
- And here’s the Talk Heathen episode that includes the call about studying physics for 16 hours.
The Family Skeptical: We’re a married atheist couple raising two wonderful, strange children. We ask big questions, dissect weird parenting moments, and examine how society ignores or misrepresents families like ours. If you’re any stripe of non-believer who’s involved in raising children, welcome! You are our people.
Our kids are Reader (8) and Go (6), and if you want to find out how we arrived at these peculiar pseudonyms, go back to Episode 1.
