There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff—we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity. |
Fighting pseudoscience isn't free. We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can today with ! |

Hello!
I have been reading RationalWiki for years. Since about 2011 or so, if I had to guess. However, I made this account relatively recently, in June 2020, and as far as I recall I had no account prior to that.
RationalWiki has long helped me to find sources on such things as pseudoscience, religion and politics. Hopefully, my edits can help to provide this for other people!
Religious background
I am atheist and Discordian. I also have experience and knowledge in both Christianity and Judaism, but don't believe in them. I grew up in a religious conservative family.

Essays or articles
- George Orwell (April 1946). "Politics and the English Language". I disagree with parts, like the opposition to idioms or even characterizing words with clear definitions as somehow "meaningless". But its considerations on brevity are useful.
