Paul Kurtz (Prometheus Books)
Prometheus Books is a publishing house founded by atheist, "skeptic," and "secular humanist" Paul Kurtz. Kurtz is known as "the father of secular humanism" and it would also be fair to say that he's the father of organized "skepticism" (as represented by the likes of James "the Amazing" Randi and Michael Shermer).
Kurtz's Wikipedia article doesn't explicitly say he's a jew, but listed in the "See also" section at the bottom of his article are links to Wikipedia's "List of Jewish scientists and philosophers" and "List of Jewish American philosophers," so one has to wonder why those are there (even though the lists themselves don't contain his name at this time). I've been skimming Prometheus's online book catalog and see a definite pattern in what it publishes. Here are some typical examples: http://www.prometheusbooks.com/index...oducts_id=1181 Quote:

And might the attacks on holocaust revisionism by organized "skeptics" have something to do with Paul Kurtz being a jew?
