About Skeptic Hosting
Skeptic Hosting is a hobby of Steve Rider.
We provide a highly reliable and reasonably secure web hosting environment for selected clients whose websites promote critical thinking and the use of reason in daily life.
Why Skepticism
We live in a world afloat with New Age woo and still shackled by ancient superstitions. Every day we are bombarded with ads for commercial products and cultural references to religion, but many claims are made and little evidence, which includes none, is presented.
We have to start thinking more and believing less on faith. We need to require evidence of a wild claim before we consider it probable or worthy of belief.
Why We Do It
We are proud to use our web hosting experience to enable our clients to just do what they do best. All expenses for operating this server are paid in full by our founder, Steve Rider. We want to see more sites on the intarwebs offering a rational, reality based alternative to religion and other types of woo.
How We Do It
We own our web servers. Nightly backups occur. We rely on our many, many years of experience in the computer industry, starting in 1978, for our expertise and know how. On rare occasions we escalate a technical problem to our same-sex husband tech support resource person.
