		<description><![CDATA[The first in my series on logical fallacies, the appeal to belief, is simple. It is the fallacious argument that because you, I, or anyone else believes something, that belief somehow confers validity to the argument. Traditionally, it&#8217;s similar to an appeal to populous, but I&#8217;ve been hearing it applied more and more recently to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Human beings are a contentious lot, and we've been arguing long before we formed what we know today as civilization. Fast forward to today and we've established a set of rules by which debates can be performed. While points and clear winners are often forgone in favor of a less structured format, the rules for the arguments themselves haven't changed too much.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I would like to start this off with everyone being very clear that I am an atheist. I do not believe in any deities. There simply isn't sufficient evidence to prove them empirically. However, I hear many people argue that religion is not a position of proof but rather of faith. Many of these same individuals call their particular deity their Heavenly Father.

From here, it looks like the Nation&#8217;s unemployed and America&#8217;s lower income families are being ransomed. We the People are being held hostage by the GOP at the behest of the top 2% of earners. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I find one of the most troubling things today is the lack of scientific knowledge in the general populous of America. More than any other ideology, Creationism seems fueled by an ignorance of our natural world and the foundations of what science actually is. According to a Gallup Poll in 2008, 44% believed that a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What we eat has a direct effect on our health. There aren&#8217;t many who argue this, and a movement towards more conscientious eating has taken hold. We&#8217;re rediscovering food. And, on doctor&#8217;s orders, many of us are removing sugars, fats, and allergens from our diets. When you look at what you eat more carefully, that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As an atheist, I get a bit irritated when I see federal institutions endorsing religion, even if it is de facto. There is an odd rallying cry recently of &#8220;take back America&#8221;, which fascinates me. Many forget that a lot of the Christian elements in our society are relatively new. The Official Motto As war [...]]]></description>
