Correct me if I'm wrong, but are these 2 covered by this one:
"Supernatural entities (gods, ghosts, angels, faeries, etc.) and
supernatural phenomena (miracles, precognition, faith healing,
reincarnation etc.) exist only in the imagination."
The assertion that humanity controls its own destiny can be derived
from the non-existence of controlling gods, forces or spirits.
It should also be noted that the assertion that myths exist only
in the imagination doesn't say that they are meaningless (without
effect).
> 3) The potential of Man is unbounded.
Doesn't this contradict the part about everything being governed
by physical laws?
>What should be:

I agree with the intent, but an effective maxim should be more
eloquent than "get outta my face" (imho). If no-one objects to
the proposal, can someone come up with a better phrasing?
