I couldn’t find a thread like this on the forums*, if there is one please refer me to it.
- other than maybe http://forum.skeptic.za.org/fun/other-atheist-and-skeptic-blogs/ and http://forum.skeptic.za.org/general-skepticism/recommended-reading/ which weren’t quite what I was after.
So here are mine:
Favourite atheism blog/podcast
Common Sense Atheism (http://commonsenseatheism.com/)
and the associated podcast - Conversations from the Pale Blue Dot (http://commonsenseatheism.com/?p=1911)
A description from the blog:
"Why This Blog Is Different.
I want this blog to be different, in productive and admirable ways, from most other atheist blogs out there. Here are the ways in which this blog is – or strives to be – different:
- Correctable and honest. I do not pretend to have all the answers. Readers regularly correct me.
- Fair. I don’t think atheists are necessarily better or more rational people than believers.
- Broad and deep. I have posts on the Historical Jesus, early Christianity, Creationism, Islam, jokes, atheist films, ethics etc.
- Cutting edge. I don’t merely rehash ancient arguments for and against God.
- Constantly updated. "
Highly recommended.
Favourite skeptic podcast/blog
Skeptoid (http://skeptoid.com/)
“Each weekly episode focuses on a single phenomenon — an urban legend, a paranormal claim, alternative therapy, or something just plain stupid — that you’ve heard of, and that you probably believe in. Skeptoid attempts to expose the folly of belief in non-evidence based phenomena, and more importantly, explains the factual scientific reality.”
Informative, accessible and fun.
