:No, of course he can't.  Because there are not any.  Even if we did assume that Nietzsche's insanity was brought on by his atheism the correlation coefficient would be infinitesimal and statistically insignificant.  Correlation on its own does not equal causation.  There has to be some sort of reproducible mechanism.  And that's assuming that we give him the case of Nietzsche, whose mental breakdown was clearly not brought on by an atheistic philosophy.

I think it's almost impossible to find a liberal who believes that Fox News has a liberal bias. Also this entry contradicts the [[Liberal denial]] article, which states that liberals tend to refuse to recognise bias in the media. [[User:StatsMsn|StatsMsn]] 21:09, 3 May 2008 (EDT)
