The False Memory Syndrome
Foundation, assisting the victims of false allegations based on
so-called "Recovered Memories". According to an article in Feminism
& Psychology (6:1 p.7, 1996), the FMSF "emerges as an accomplice of
the mental health establishment and a leading force in the
heteropatriarchal backlash against women". Wow!

Much-hyped
author Robert Anton Wilson claims skeptics are waging a "New Inquisiton" against
supposed "heretics". Here is my

Doug Weller's
critiques of Cult
Archaeology
In The
Mismeasure of Man, Steven Jay Gould highlighted the errors of long-dead
theorists about human intelligence, accusing contemporary intelligence
researchers of making the same mistakes. His book, implying that intelligence
research is fundamentally tainted by racism, sexism, and pseudoscientific
practice, was widely read and for the most part uncritically accepted, even
though the reviews of it in Science (215:4533 5 Feb. 1982, p. 656)
and Nature (296:5857, 8 April 1982, p. 506) were quite critical.
Few people have ever seen Jensen's reply to
Gould, in which the disingenuousness of Gould's attack is laid bare.
See how easy it is to generate your very own impressive (but ultimately nonsensical)
Postmodernist paper. (Read it carefully - it is not the
