Resolute Atheist
Originally PROD'd by 86.138.0.221, with explanation: was:
 * POV pushing, largely original research, Google search returns 316 results, most of which pertain to a 'resolute atheist' in an adjective sense rather than a specific ideology

The user subsequently removed the content for some unexplained reason. I reverted, keeping the PROD template in place. The user then posted the following on my talk page:
 * Over at Resolute Atheist you reverted my delete. Incredible, seriously incredible how much the Atheist race will look out for one another, I mean, just take a look at that page, take a look at my reasons for deleting it, it returns 316 google search results and about 3 relate to a specific ideology of a 'resolute atheist'. If this were a Theist pushing his own POV you would be screaming bloody murder to the Admins right now.


 * What good reason does that article have to remain?

I wasn't quite sure how to respond to such an odd and inflamatory rant. Suspecting possible insanity I thought this should be brought through for AfD instead. I have no particular preference as regarding deletion. Thank you. RJH (talk) 21:35, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge with Antitheism, perhaps after some editing to bring it closer to NPOV. I agree with the anonymous user described in the nomination that this isn't a generally-recognized term for this particular worldview - "Militant Atheist" is, and that takes us to the Antitheism article. Tevildo
 * Delete. Fails WP:NOR, WP:NPOV, WP:V, and a host of others. There are articles with stronger reasons for deletion... but not many. Captainktainer * Talk 23:11, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge per Tevildo. Danny Lilithborne 00:38, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - no meaningful content to merge. BigDT 01:43, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete: WP:SPAM, not POV or OR. I fear for the sanity of user:86.138.0.221. --die Baumfabrik 03:30, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, as far as I can tell the information in the article is completely false or misguided. "Resolute" means "Firm or determined; unwavering.", however the article makes out resolute athiests to be anti-thiestic, which I don't believe is (necessarily) true. —Pengo 09:27, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Without citations there isn't an alternative.--Richhoncho 18:08, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
