If they can confirm a reasonable credibility, then yes, they should. Preferably with as much openness about the source as is safely possible. As far as I know Wikipedia has always maintained that they did not receive the information from ru

Yes, sadly they do have a bias. Equally sadly, so do Fox, The NY Times, etc, etc.. Still, we need journalism. Attacking journalistic organisations just because their bias doesn't fit yours is a slippery slope.

While I personally do not believe in predictive powers of astrology, that is specifically not what the OP asks about. If you bother to read the question, you might notice the OP asks about ayurvedic (Hindu) astrology, and I don't thi

I worked at a high school about 5 years ago and our kids knew how to do all these things.. So, either a stupid-bomb hit the world recently, or there is some strong selection bias going on in that article..

There are several OSS social networks. I think part of the problem is that to "replace Facebook" it would have to be as addictive or worse then Facebook, defeating the purpose of replacing it. In other words: Why hasn't scien

Go to your nearest airport and start talking to people? I'm curious how you arrived at your idea if you don't know people who would actually use it.

Do you have any suggestions for this "other way"? I consider myself an anarchist in the sense that I believe that we should strive not to need government, taking responsibility for our own actions. I do not currently believe we as
