The Center for Inquiry also belongs in the "once good, now not-so-much" category. It's incredible what they seem willing to do in defense of Lord Dawkins.
(On the flip side, I may have to take Hemant Mehta out of this category. He got in there back in the ElevatorGate days, but seems to have learned something since then.) |

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

| And this is why I link to good articles and ignore the organization. I have friends who are CFI fellows like Susan Gerbic and her Gorilla Skepticism group, but that's about it.
Oh well... |
