I don't know, but not Skeptiko. I think that the low rating is evidence of something (you don't do as poorly as anyone possibly can through no fault of your own, do you?) and that its not necessarily going to be like that with the content. I also find more fault in the way premises are accepted with out evidence; who am I to say what is and is not correct? But the fact of the matter is that skeptiko does not attempt to build a strong case for what they believe, and any "skeptic" not building a strong case is misusing the term skeptic, like creation scientists misuse the term science. I really dislike people making claim to the scientific method for credibility and not using it, I really like science as a method and I think that people who take the name but not the method are devaluing the name; And going back to the low rating I think that the public agrees with me.
