There is nothing new under the sun.

Until Kingdom Come, there always have been, and always will be, threats to Christian faith. If atheists weren’t threatened by Christianity, we’d have to be doing something wrong.

Every knee will bow ... eventually.

Articles(and some of the responses here) like this do more to drive people to Atheism and/or away from Christianity than Christopher Hitchens, Sam Harris, Richard Dawkins or any other “New” Atheist (whoever they are) could ever dream of doing by themselves.

Would these new atheists anti-Christian bigots send out a free DVD to anyone who makes a video claiming that allah is fake, or is denouncing Christianity the only way to get it?

“The “new Atheists” believe that the old atheists were too tolerant of religion, and not aggressive enough in their attacks upon it.”

Gee how tolerant and diverse.

Read Sam Harris, who is opposed to using religion to set “morality.”

He cites islam and the fact it preaches so much violence to spread their word.

And he cites Catholicism for their protection of child molestation by priests.

He believes science is capable of discerning the best overall morality.

The “new Atheists” believe that the old atheists were too tolerant of religion, and not aggressive enough in their attacks upon it. To them, religion is not benign it is a retrograde evil which society can no longer afford to tolerate.

I don't think that Atheists realize that the more aggressive they get the more they prove the Thiests' theory of good and evil.

Atheism often sounds like an organization trying to sell masturbation as an alternative to sex, because they feel oppressed by sex.
