http://boltonian.edublogs.org is an interesting philosophy blog, covering a whole range of topics, 'polite' in the sense that contributors argue rather than rant, and featuring substantial items rather than short posts.

To get a taster, the link below is to the reproduction on this blog of an article by Dr Gerard Hughes on Dawkins criticism of religion - valuable for anyone who is into the Philosophy of Religion:

Ever since Plato presented Socrates' ideas in dialogue form, philosophy has thrived on discussion.

 

Expressing views and having them challenged is the life-blood of critical thinking. Blogs are a great vehicle for doing just that - so why not read what others have to say, and perhaps venture to join the debate.
