Freethought Day, etc.

Happy Freethought Day! Freethought Day is celebrated by secularists to mark the end of the Salem Witch Trials. For more information and history about the holiday, go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freethought_Day or http://www.churchoffreethought.org/library/36-lectures-and-sermons/288-a-holiday-for-facts-and-reason. In honor of the day, I am going to start a series of posts of an article about critical thinking.

Each week on Monday, I will post a part of the article. I will continue this for 5-7 weeks until the article has been posted in its entirety. The article is titled, They Think; Therefore They Know? The title is an adaptation of a famous quote, by Rene Descartes, usually translated in English as "I think, therefore I am".
