Skepsis Norge or simply Skepsis is a Norwegian nonprofit skeptical organisation that strives to conduct, promote and publish critical investigations of so-called paranormal phenomena and pseudoscientific claims, along with educating the public about popular, yet dubious ideas, such as "urban legends, conspiracy theories, miracles, astrology, parapsychology, UFOs and homeopathy."[2]
