Listen Later

On this episode, we welcome Kathy Gibbens, a passionate advocate for critical thinking and logical reasoning and host of the Filter it Through a Brain Cell Podcast.

Kathy is a homeschool Mom who first learned about logical fallacies along with her 7th grade daughter. She quickly realized that this little-taught skill is essential for navigating all the crazy messages we are being bombarded with by culture. Kathy launched the Filter It Through a Brain Cell podcast, where she teaches critical thinking in short, fun episodes and is passionate about helping the next generation learn to think well and love God with their mind.

Jenny and Kathy discuss the importance of teaching critical thinking and logical reasoning skills to the next generation, especially in a world filled with misinformation and emotional manipulation. Kathy shares her journey into understanding logical fallacies and the impact of education on critical thinking. The conversation highlights the historical context of critical thinking in education, the threats posed by emotionalism and relativism, and the empowering effects of curiosity and discernment. They also explore the connection between critical thinking and apologetics, emphasizing the need for individuals to defend their beliefs with sound reasoning.
