About This Tool

Some people hide the truth out of the goodness of their hearts. But in most cases, people lie simply because they are mistaken, or misled, or simply deceive themselves. They think they know the truth, but they’re just telling other people’s lies. Therefore, in the field of science, such Skeptical Conferences are held regularly every few years, either to overturn old scientific theories or to question recently proposed scientific concepts.

Such Skeptical Conferences have been held many times in history. Only 24 of these Skeptical Conferences have been randomly selected for this tool. It just so happens that most of those overturned at these conferences were scientific theories or scientific practices that were very well known internationally at that time. Although some of the original scientists were no longer alive, out of a serious attitude towards science, we still need to be very careful and responsible in judging each scientific evidence. The time, country, and city, the main presentation and the scientific details of the discussions of these Skeptical Conferences can also be found in the generator.

Click the "Display All Items" button and you will get a list of skeptical conferences.
