Deeply spiritual and atheist
Some people are spiritual to the degree that they cannot leave the faith. They mold their arguments with possession of cognitive biases, fallacies, formal fallacies and are not well-read. But rather it is because their spirituality is so strong that it won’t allow them to escape it. But some people are deeply spiritual and atheist.…

Can we recognize nationalities better by faces than DNA?
Nationalism brought nothing but gas chambers and we should get rid of it. Maybe I do look like a Czech, have Czech DNA, but I couldn’t care less. I don’t care whether you are white, black, South Asian, East Asian. I assess a person by his intelligence, talents, creativity, personality and moral values. However, despite…

Cancer cure? Rather an atomic bomb!
Since I am pro-democracy, I am completely aware that the time’s need (in the 1940s) was really more useful to create an atomic bomb to deter totalitarian enemies than to find a cure for cancer. But what about allocating the costly resources and the best brains now to cure cancer? No! Cancer cure? Rather an…

Bible written by educators? Complete delusion
We must ommit the fact that God is invisible, but he communicates with us via dubious book that is really strange. But if Christianity proved to be right, what would the effort of the Bible look like – a Bible written by educators? In my article, I try to debunk the fact the New Testament…

A Beginner’s Guide to Critical Thinking
In 2024, there is information overload. In the country where I live, media and their super-rich owners don’t compete over who brings the news first anymore. They just get their shared power and the people above them tell them what to write and which medium to include to. Floods, high casualties, and accidents just don’t…

Evidence-based super-rich families and bankers
I strongly believe that knowing who rules us is part of the repertoire of every individual who considers themselves educated. But these are just conspiracy theories, aren’t they? No, it is heavily evidence-based, with strong internal logic. For example, every country is affected by the Iron Law of Oligarchization, and every country has its background…

Also, religion vs. reality can be useful for people who…
