Have you ever wondered why otherwise intelligent people believe things that don't seem to be grounded in reality or reason? Michael Shermer, leading skeptical educator, attempts to address this question in one of my favorite Ted Talks.

Enjoy, and I hope you will return tomorrow to see the video I've made discussing our new topic of conversation for the month of December. I have been so excited by the discussions developing on my posts. Let's all continue to talk nerdy to one another!

**I apologize that there is no transcript for this video. Bear in mind that I will ALWAYS include one with the videos I produce. Thanks!
