I propose a few changes to the Irrational Precepts
The list of Irrational Precepts is a nice idea, and I think that a little clarification would make it even better. Here are my suggestions:
(Disclaimer: I am not a native speaker of English. My suggestions should be reviewed critically.)
3. Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell
-> 3. The claims of Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell
(Reason: people can hardly be precepts.)
4. Religious terrorism/fundamentalism/born again Christianity
-> 4. Religious terrorism, fundamentalism and born-again Christianity
(Reason: style)
5. Agnostic is not a position between belief(theist) and non belief(atheist).
-> 5. The belief that agnosticism is a middle ground between theism and atheism
(Reason: clarity)
6. Belief in psychics/paranormal/supernatural claims
-> 6. Belief in psychics and paranormal or supernatural claims
(Reason: style)
11. Logicians use logic to limit peoples thought
-> 11. The belief that logicians use logic to limit people's thought
(Reason: clarity)
