Belief in God and credulity
[edit]Once people stop believing in God, the problem is not that they will believe in nothing; rather, the problem is that they will believe anything. — C. S. Lewis ~2026-97769 (talk) 19:17, 5 January 2026 (UTC)
- @~2026-97769: Untrue. There is no correlation between degree of credulity and belief in God or lackthereof. You can easily find people who "will believe anything" among both the most die-hard religionists, and the most die-hard atheists and agnostics. As an adherant of scientific skepticism, I certainly do not "believe anything." I give credence to ideas for which there are robust evidence and reason-based arguments, and which can survive the scrutiny of critical analysis.

Jubilant Sykes and section headings
[edit]| story · music · places |
|---|
Thank you for expanding and fixing Jubilant Sykes. I don't know what you mean about section headers by "consistency with other biographical headers, - there is little consistency across Wikipedia, and I know many biographies with level 2 headers for life, work and others, and level 3 headers within those major sections, such as Mozart. Why change such things? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:45, 4 February 2026 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt: You're welcome. And thank you for the kind message. As to your question, there is certainly not total consistency across all categories of articles, but that's not to say that there isn't some modicum of consistency within certain categories, such as biographical articles of modern entertainers. Those typically separate Early life, Career, and Personal life sections. You can see this by looking any number of the Featured articles in the Media biographies section of the FA list.

- Thank you and understand. I come from opera (Jessye Norman), and he did both. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:27, 4 February 2026 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt: I'm sorry, I'm not following. Nightscream (talk) 23:48, 4 February 2026 (UTC)
- I tried to explain that I see more opera singer articles, which look like Jessye Norman (as an example for what I tried to describe in my comment). He did both, opera and "entertainment", so it takes a decision to be consistent with one format or the other. Both seem valid, and I see no reason to switch from one to the other. Can you follow? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:53, 4 February 2026 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt: Oh, okay, I get it now. Thanks. :-) Nightscream (talk) 01:15, 5 February 2026 (UTC)
I felt that was too much. It for instance lost why Caleb stayed behind, making it seem it was simply something he wanted to do rather than begging for it and being allowed.Doug Weller talk 18:41, 20 February 2026 (UTC)
- @Doug Weller: The passage does not "imply" anything about why he stayed on campus one way or another, though a reader could certainly infer that he did so because he chose to. Whether he begged for it and had his request granted is not needed for a reader's understanding of the plot, which is what these capsule-sized reviews are for. Even in an article dedicated to the episode, it would not be necessary to specify this, beyond simply mentioning that he requested it. Far more relevant are characters' thoughts, motivations, conflicts, etc., like the fact that he is worried about Tarima, and is reluctant to compose a message to her. To be fair, I did omit that bit, which would illustrate how the fact that he eventually does so serves as the payoff, so I just added that setup now. Hope that helps.
