Welcome to the Rational Integrity group.
The goal here is to help you produce, via critical peer review, essays and written opinions that have benefited from honest scrutiny. We're here in a cooperative effort to share ideas and provide constructive feedback.
Identify biases; root out errors; clarify meaning. Take advantage of the logic and common sense of freethinkers, in the spirit of peer review.
P.S.

I hope you like it. If you've got a more descriptive image to suggest, please let me know.
