Edinburgh Skeptics

Edinburgh Skeptics (Edinburgh Skeptics Society) is a nonprofit organisation that promotes science, reason and critical thinking in Edinburgh and throughout Scotland. It was founded in 2009.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 History )〕 The Society hosts regular social and educational events in Edinburgh and has campaigned against the use of homeopathy and challenged claims of ghost sightings.
The Society organizes regular talks as part of "Skeptics in the Pub". The speaker invited to launch the group in March 2009 was Chris French.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.edinburghskeptics.co.uk/events-list/skeptics-in-the-pub-chris-french/ )〕 Subsequent speakers have included David Aaronovitch〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Skeptics in the Pub – David Aaronovitch – Voodoo Histories Updated: New Conspiracy Theories )〕 and Julian Baggini. In 2010 the Society created the award-winning ''Skeptics on the Fringe'' event, which is held annually during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. ''Skeptics on the Fringe'' won an ''Ockham Award'' after a vote by the readers of ''The Skeptic'' magazine in 2013.
