::I am inclined to agree with you.  Unfortunately it makes the article a little schizophrenic (if I may use that term in such an inaccurate manner).  The top of the article asserts that homosexuality and atheism are solid indicators of Olympic performance for reasons, whereas your section is intended to show otherwise.  An internal tension, if you will.

::I get the feeling from the ''Nations that are increasingly atheistic'' section that there is supposed to be some reason that atheists are incapable of acting as members of a team (the reason is not explained).  Beyond that, the article is not only utterly unsupported by any study or even by any observations made by eminent persons in the appropriate field, it doesn't even contain a hypothesis as to the means by which the asserted connections operate.  I would suggest deleting and starting again but I have read Ed Poor's comments above and I assume any such similar request from myself would be resisted.  --[[User:QuentinQ|QuentinQ]] 23:36, 15 July 2012 (EDT)

::: We have explained those connections elsewhere, including on this talk page. Perhaps make separate articles and link to them? If we put all the explanations in this article, I think it would get a bit too busy. Also, we'd have to copy them for every future Olympics, which seems like a waste if we can just link to them. What does everyone else think? [[User:Gregkochuconn|Gregkochuconn]] 12:04, 21 July 2012 (EDT)
