77th Skeptics Circle

The 77th meeting of the Skeptics Circle is up at WhiteCoat Underground. This time I have three favorite entries: Greta Christina (who, by the way, I recently discovered is fantastic) blogs about raising children without God, Orac at Respectful Insolence has a thoughtful discussion about skepticism and scientific consensus and Happy Jihad's House of Pancakes asks a tough question about skepticism's place in the humanities. (Great quote about postmodernism from this last blog post: "I am also intrinsically suspicious of a philosophy that is based entirely on French puns and the abuse of parentheses").
