Thanks for the reference. I am going to build on this statement to make a point.
St. Paul spread the Gospel to both Jews and Greeks, at least initially. He had some success with both groups of people. However, when he did not have success, the results were different. For the most part, unbelieving Greeks continued to believe in polytheism, but left Paul alone. Unbelieving Jews, on the other hand, who understood the God the Father part of the equation, ran Paul out of town and even made attempts on his life. The Jews did this because either Paul's message shook the foundation of their beliefs, or because they had money and power to lose.
The atheists of today that attack Christianity have a lot in common with the Jews of St. Paul's time. Either their fundamental beliefs are being challenged (and they have no answer), or they are losing power and money.
