The Skeptic’s Toolbox
The notion that beliefs should be based on evidence is fairly recent. Nowadays, proponents justify their claims, both plausible and implausible, on the basis of evidence. Good evidence is difficult to come by. Even when the evidence is good, proponents of a claim often misinterpret or misuse it.
The goal of this year's Toolbox is to supply you with the tools to evaluate and use evidence. To properly justify a claim, evidence has to be adequate and properly interpreted.
