This seems more Snopes than RationalWiki--"Shut up, Brx." 01:19, 25 January 2014 (UTC)

It would be a better article if it said more about the myth being used than just recounting it. PowderSmokeAndLeather (talk) 01:31, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
I think the sections after the examples do ok as RW material. ħumanUser talk:Human 02:58, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
The snarky analysis of the different stories makes this great RW material Beatgroover (talk) 02:56, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

[edit] Stereotypes utilized

In the section Stereotypes utilized we state: "The core of every variation of the myth is the idea that atheists are obsessed with disproving the existence of God. While some people like this do exist, most scientifically-minded atheists in the modern day recognize that the existence of God is not falsifiable, and instead focus on the negative effects that organized religion has on the world." (my italics)

While many athiests, myself included, think that the influence of religion is largely negative I am not entirely convinced that this is true globally. Indeed, the "atheist focusing on the negative aspects of religion" idea may itself be a stereotype.--Bob"I think you'll find it's more complicated than that." 20:48, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

[edit] God's Not Dead

We need to have an article on this movie, stat. From the reviews I read, it's a propaganda piece that anyone with two brain cells should loath. --128.113.151.84 (talk) 06:09, 18 April 2014 (UTC)
