Tools and Resources For Critical Thinking

This is blog post will contain some pointers to tools and resources related to Critical Thinking, Rationality, Skepticism and related topics.

I might add additional items in the future and it is possible that I might add some commentary but for now this is a place I can document some resources and then point interested persons easily.

Of course I do not agree with every item listed in this post; just because I list a resource does not mean that it is correct in every respect.  This blog is not even correct in every respect and I am the author.
