Ep 261: Demonic Possession or A Lack of Skeptical Thinking?

Release Date:

Is it possible that some people who we think are mentally ill are actually victims of demonic possession?  One psychiatrist says yes.  Another psychiatrist says no - believing this is true is a matter of not carefully thinking about what you see and hear from others.  In this episode I break down the claims made by Richard Gallagher and a counterpoint to Gallagher which was written by Steven Novella.  Along the way we'll learn about logical fallacies such as the "argument for incredulity" and the "argument of ignorance".  I think you'll find this fascinating and I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.
