Dr Ellis was known for his vulgarity, “pragmatic atheism” (if there is a God, he/she/it doesn’t interfer), pioneer in sex therapy,…. Click Here to Read More

This video presents a case study of a typical (in fact, randomly selected) talk from the LDS General Conference. Throughout the talk, we pick out textbook bases of psychological manipulation, and show how they are used to instill ill-founded beliefs into the audience. This demonstration represents how virtually all religious beliefs are generated. Basic human cognitive bias is brazenly exploited, while objective skepticism is frowned upon or ignored.
