Looking at the articles is fine.  Dismissing him out of hand is fine,
too, and not in any way incompatible with looking at the articles.
Sam's POV is way off neutral; far better to use your own judgment.
Which is likely rather better than Sam's, given his past history per
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/Sam_Spade.

For the record, I followed the linked edits up and came to precisely
the same conclusion as JKelly, especially the point about the God
article.  America <> the world.  I wouldn't like to guess what
proportion of the world's population are monotheistic believers, but I
would find a figure over 50% very surprising given all the pantheists,
agnostics and atheists out there.

But then, I'm just a stupid ape descendent who doesn't know any
better...
