Listen to episode 1027 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Supreme Value of Skeptics & Free Thinkers. Edited and adapted from All’s Right with the World by Charles B. Newcomb.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The word "skeptic" is from the Greek. Its root meaning is "one who is looking for the truth," "who is thoughtful," "who considers," "an inquirer after facts." Yet we are often warned against falling prey to "skepticism," just as long ago the skeptic was viewed as a criminal because they would persist in declining to accept as truth, without inquiry, what the public considered facts, embodied in religious dogmas — which today have been replaced by social dogmas.
