Add Atheism info box to all atheism related talk pages (use {{WikiProject Atheism}} or see info box)
Ensure atheism-related articles are members of Atheism by checking whether [[Category:Atheism]] has been added to atheism-related articles–and, where it hasn't, adding it.
Try to expand stubs. Ideas and theories about life, however, are prone to generating neologisms, so some stubs may be suitable for deletion (see deletion process).
State atheism needs a reassessment of its Importance level, as it has little to do with atheism and is instead an article about anti-theist/anti-religious actions of governments.

I removed the sentence, which was introduced by an IP last October . Half an hour earlier, the IP had vandalized another article, see here, and been reverted immediately. So, the edit is suspicious and should only go back if someone verifies it and gives the page number. --Hob Gadling (talk) 11:30, 14 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
Too simple; harmful to rationality itself (not harmful to rigorous thinkers which he was not)

Daniel Dennett was unintelligent because he erroneously focused on general physical monism (without subdomains of philosophical numberism [monism, pluralism, etc.]) which is wrong. Physicalism guarantees only two things: 1. antisupernaturalism/absolute logical foundations, 2. brain data-processing is brain data-processing (the active matter and energy fields is consciousness). Physicalism leaves open the questions: 1. one foundational quantum kernel or more multipartite foundations, 2. causal openness or closure in the physical foundations, 3. Everettism (many-worlds interpretation), 4. multibranching cyclic cosmology (non-Penrosean because general relativity is wrong at non-Paulian spatiotemporal degeneracy levels, ultra high speeds, and energy levels), 5. inconmensurable multiverses (all open questions are logical/physicalist). ~2026-43943-28 (talk) 11:45, 11 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
