'''Critical thinking''' is thinking rationally and sensibly, making the most of whatever information you have.

*Critical thinking is not synonymous with [[atheism]] and not all atheists are good critical thinkers. There are many reasons why someone might lack a belief in [[Monotheism|god]]/[[Polytheism|gods]] and careful weighing of evidence is only one.
