THE SKEPTICS
Barry Williams - Editor of The Skeptic
The Australian Skeptics have over 2,000 subscribers to their magazine The Skeptic. Many are highly educated and practised at refutation. Beliefs that survive skeptical scrutiny are therefore more likely to be worthwhile than those that don't.
For these reasons Investigator Magazine encourages skeptics and true believers to present their best evidence and answer each other. Readers can then decide who's right or stay undecided. In this way their conclusions will more likely be correct!
It's easy to "blow your trumpet" if opposers are excluded and stopped from replying. But it's difficult when there is open access to informed others who disagree.
The world is full of people who cling to unexamined beliefs that lead to loss or hurt. By the above process Investigator seeks to avoid adding to the problem and instead give readers the tools to make better decisions.
