The article on mathematical nihilism is not promoting a particular view. It never says that this theory is true or that all other forms of nihilism are false. It is a brief description of a complex theory that is worthy of discussion, particularly so because it is grounded in physics, consistent with biology and chemistry, based on modeling facts, as is done everyday by professional scientists, and is not based on wild philosophical speculation, using undefined terms, unempirical notions, and invalid arguments, as are other forms of nihilism discussed in this article, even though they are published.

No, it has not been peer-reviewed, or "validated," whatever that means, but it is available to the public for further research and discussion in several E-books, Dr. Collins' paperback books and his blog. Who cares how many people have read a theory and approved of it? Most of the stuff in this article on nihilism is nothing but ranting, and it would not stand up to a moment's serious cross-examination by anyone with scientific credentials like Dr. Collins or Dr. Krauss. Lawrence Krauss' book, A World From Nothing, contains a detailed description of a possible physical mechanism of the unusual premise of Dr. Collins' mathematical nihilism. Dr. Krauss, as a professional physicist, does not mention "mathematical nihilism" because he is unaware of it. Additionally, as a professional scientist, if Dr. Krauss were aware of mathematical nihilism, why would he invite censure by linking his views on physics and cosmology with a term like "nihilism" that is associated in the reading public's mind with hatred, anarchy, and violence?

Are you afraid of Dr. Collins' new kind of nihilism, grounded in physics, that is by nature creative and happy, that is not violent, anarchistic, senseless, self-contradictory, and stupid? If you are not afraid, stop blocking access to new ideas. Let the readers of Wikipedia decide what they want to research further. Unfortunately, Wikipedia has numerous statements that have no reference. The claims of mathematical nihilism are not without references. Mathematical nihilism is based soundly on physics and there are numerous published, serious scientific and philosophical works that deal with subject, directly and indirectly.
