In a WIRED magazine that came out a few months ago, they had an article on the "NEW ATHEISM" movement. The intellectual fathers of this movement were all academic men who had decided that it was time for full out destruction of modern religions. They even went so far as to promote removing children from their parents in order to make sure they were not indoctrinated into religion. These gentlemen included the author of the "GOD DELUSION" book, and seemed to be in agreement that they had to make all people embarrassed to even mention God or a belief in God. This strategy is being carried out by their true followers in the MSM by attacking Christianity every Easter by stressing that Jesus was not who he claimed to be but just another man. As we know from prior events, the MSM is quite comfortable whacking Christianity vs. another religion like Islam, so Christianity will be the first religion to get the full treatment.
To summarize, this new atheism approach outlined by the academic elite, will be heavily promoted in our future by the media and entertainment types as part of their strategy to get rid of religion in general. I fully expect this type of nonsense to escalate much like the global warming propaganda.
More so, in fact. Because while radical Christians only foster ignorance and bigotry, only Radical Islam advocates murder in its name.
