  • A skeptical resourse

    In a sea of unreflective and outright nonsense, a questioning voice to consider.
  • Can’t access digital subscription

    I purchased a digital subscription a couple years ago through Apple, and it clearly shows in my list of Apple Subscriptions. Unfortunately, when I try to read the digital version on my iPad, all I get is stupid Pocket Magazine saying that I need to subscribe. What? I AM subscribed! Very annoying and if this not quickly resolved I will cancel!
  • Finally, FACTS

    Refreshing to read sober analysis. What a gift to have science based critical analysis on a range of issues.

    Great articles assessing the truth or falsehood of all kinds of theories and assertions, with the truth being the only guiding light. Articles you’ll find nowhere else.
  • Critical thought.

    Great thinking outside of the bubble.
  • Great to have the digital version

    Since I read nearly everything on my iPad or phone, the digital version of this journal makes reading the it much more accessible. I can easily read it in bed with even with the lamp turned off. I also appreciate the Reader view feature that turns an article into a single long page for scrolling. The only most important feature missing for me is a highlighter. When I read non-fiction I always want to annotate what I'm reading for later review. It's great that the app allows for copying and pasting selected text, but a highlighter is also needed.
  • Should be part of regular education

    By DDS2010
    The education of a society should include technical knowledge of how to continue educating yourself and how not to be fooled by bad or misleading information. This magazine does just that. From articles of atheism, pseudo science, and myths to real scientific knowledge, Skeptic magazine helps me wade through the BS to arrive at reality.
  • DO NOT SUBSCRIBE!

    DO NOT subscribe to “pocket mag”! Expensive frequent charges, and very difficult to unsubscribe. I was charged a fortune for my “trial”.
  • Great Magazine

    The magazine is great -- One of my very favorite. App makes my entire library available whenever and wherever I am. Just open my iPad.
  • A necessary evil

    5
    By tjimmmy
    It's amazing that something like this is even necessary, and it is very much so as this country seems to be devolving into the Dark Ages. How can we have grown so much in the last two thousand years and now seem to be going back to many of the values and superstitions humanity overcame. Science is being devalued, an elite 1 percent of rich people are ruling and the middle class is shrinking, and religion that had evolved more into charitable organizations are now returning to authoritarian attacks on morals and taking over politics. Skeptic Magazine is the antidote for all of that fighting the disease and blight of ignorance and providing a determined resistance to the realities of vaccination deniers, human global warming deniers, charlatans and hucksters, and so much more. I had stacks of Skeptics going back years but now with their availability with a simple App I've replaced the stacks with a subscription and back issues on an iPad. I can now take my library with me wherever I go. Evolution is a good thing. Devolution is stupid.
