Carl Sagan’s Nine Precepts of Skeptical Thinking:

Confirm the reality (independent of the status quo).
Encourage debate on the evidence by proponents of all points of view.
Avoid appeals to authority.
Recognize that there is always more than one hypothesis.
Do not cling to a hypothesis simply because it is yours.
Attaching a numerical quantity is key to discriminating hypotheses.
In a chain of argument, all the links must work—not just most of them.
Everything else being equal, the simplest explanation is the most likely.
Proposals that cannot be proven or shown to be false do not have much scientific value.
