The Thought Criminal: Randi's Involvement With Identity Theft And His Lies About His "Carlos" Scam Part 1
http://zthoughtcriminal.blogspot.com/2013/04/randis-involvement-with-identity-theft.html
Friday, April 5, 2013. Randi's Involvement With Identity Theft And His Lies About His "Carlos" Scam Part 1. F GLBT folks had equal rights in the United States it is quite possible that James Randi's long time, live-in companion might not have committed the crime of identity theft. Randi would have been able to marry him and been able to regularize his living in the United States as many straight couples have been able to do. But that's not what happened. He was a young artist. He was going to the Art...

Friday, August 7, 2015. In The Week of the Anniversaries of the Dropping of the Atomic Bombs - Catholicism Must be Witness for Peace. Fr Richard McBrien on Fridays. I do not endorse the cynicism of the comment, nor do I include it here in order to insure its continued circulation. Justifiably or not, the statement rings true for many people, and it happens to be useful in illustrating the point of this week's essay. In this age of profound anxiety brought about by full-scale hostilities, terrorism, and a...

The Thought Criminal: Footnotes to Yesterday's Posts
http://zthoughtcriminal.blogspot.com/2013/03/footnotes-to-yesterdays-posts.html
Saturday, March 30, 2013. Footnotes to Yesterday's Posts. Here is how Dennis Rawlins presents Martin Gardner's role in the sTARBABY scandal, along with other upper eschalon members of CSICOP. I called Randi on the 21st and urged him to phone Kurtz to get his immediate reaction to the letter. For obvious reasons I didn't want to give Kurtz a lot of time to concoct fresh excuses. Randi meant, of course, that expulsion could come for public dissent. No other Councilor present (Gardner was not) said a wo...

http://zthoughtcriminal.blogspot.com/2015/08/james-randi-social-darwinist-deceiver.html
Monday, August 10, 2015. James Randi Social Darwinist Deceiver And Liar and The "Skeptics" Who Eternally Cover Up For Him. Hen dealing with the long record of lies and deceptions of James Randi, it's hard to know where to begin. I'll begin with the end, or at least the most recent because it deals with a serious and dangerous and characteristic position on his ideological side which I have written a great deal about in an entirely unrelated context. N her "skeptical" blog, Haley stated. At his "Education...

The Thought Criminal: On Randi's Totally Phony Completely Bogus "Million Dollar Challenge" 1.0
http://zthoughtcriminal.blogspot.com/2015/08/on-randis-totally-phony-completely.html
Wednesday, August 12, 2015. On Randi's Totally Phony Completely Bogus "Million Dollar Challenge" 1.0. Ny honest analysis of James Randi's "Million Dollar" Challenge has to begin with considering its value to James Randi and the present use of the "Challenge" by the "Skepticism" industry. The entire value of the famous "Randi Million Dollar Challenge", for them, is in being able to claim that no one has succeeded in winning it. Ny challenge that might risk being demonstrable can be kept out of considerati...

The Thought Criminal: Franklin Graham Being An Ass
http://zthoughtcriminal.blogspot.com/2015/08/franklin-graham-being-ass.html
Thursday, August 13, 2015. Franklin Graham Being An Ass. Ranklin Graham is a good example of clergy who work overtime to give Christianity a bad name. He regularly gets on TV or radio and says stupid stuff to try to generate buzz for his brand among his target audience but which gets the God-haters even more buzz. He's been on FOX. Why not make it a requirement to avoid boycott by the followers of the Graham dynasty of clerics that all things sold be assigned gender labels for all ages? Food means life i...

The Thought Criminal: Pseudo-Experts Peddling Pseudo-Expertise Online
http://zthoughtcriminal.blogspot.com/2015/03/pseudo-experts-peddling-pseudo.html
Thursday, March 26, 2015. Pseudo-Experts Peddling Pseudo-Expertise Online. Here is evidence of this among the pseudo-skeptics. At the 2005 James Randi cult's "Amazing Meeting" Randi conducted a workshop with Michael Shermer called "Communicating Skepticism to the Public." During that session the participants were handed a manual that said, among other things,. Skeptics admire Randi’s belligerent style. In real science, becoming an expert requires qualifications and hard work, but as Randi and Shermer poi...

The Thought Criminal: Hate Mail - According to Materialists The Valid Response To Published Science Is
http://zthoughtcriminal.blogspot.com/2015/08/hate-mail-according-to-materialists.html
Thursday, August 13, 2015. Hate Mail - According to Materialists The Valid Response To Published Science Is. Citing a line from a 1951, Z grade sci-fi flick. And that's really about all there is to "skepticism" as popularly understood and promoted by the sciency side of things. I expect to be sent the link to where the Eschatots take up that line of erudition. Update: Now he's refuting published science by quoting Kristie Alley in Star Dreck II. 33 An Overall Analysis of the SRI Experiments: 1973-1988.

The Thought Criminal: Blinded By Brain-Only Dogma and Michael Shermer Copy-cat?
http://zthoughtcriminal.blogspot.com/2015/08/blinded-by-brain-only-dogma-and-michael.html
Tuesday, August 11, 2015. Blinded By Brain-Only Dogma and Michael Shermer Copy-cat? Saw a link to this piece. Ll of the materialist attempts to dispose of our minds as non-physical entities rest on such things as misrepresentations of the life of Phineas Gage. Will also point out this article. E begins his piece this way. What do tobacco, food additives, chemical flame retardants and carbon emissions all have in common? I pointed out two years before he wrote that. The "Skepticism" industry really is an ...

Friday, August 14, 2015. With the "Skeptics" Irony Is Never More Than A Sentence Away. For anyone who doubts what the phony "Randi Challenge" means to the "skepticism" industry, here is a piece that was part of that series. Ere is a segment of the podcast of The Skeptics’ Guide to the Universe. On Jan. 19. Steven Novella: So Evan, more people are attacking our beloved Million Dollar James Randi paranormal challenge. Bernstein: No. Of course you haven’t. Because he writes about the paranormal. His is a go...
