From movies like "The Golden Compass" to books such as "God is Not Great”, atheism has received a lot of media attention recently. However, there is a marked difference between atheists of the past and those in today's limelight. Today's atheists seem to be going more on the offensive, attacking Christianity in public forums.

Particularly disturbing is the recent release of The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins. This book has catapulted to the top of bestseller lists and allowed Dawkins a new platform for airing his ideas. After witnessing several students leave the Faith after reading this book, Scott Hahn and Benjamin Wiker decided to join together to address Dawkins' arguments against the existence of God. An essential book for dismantling Richard Dawkins' atheistic agenda, Hahn and Wiker show in Answering the New Atheism how inconsistent and illogical his conclusions truly are.

Included in the topics covered is the issue of morality. Today's atheism uses Darwinism for its base - an ideology which teaches that there is no "right" and "wrong. Every moral issue is approached subjectively and morality is continuously evolving. Hahn and Wiker take a look at Dawkins' "super niceness" version of morality and show how his ideas are fundamentally at odds with the Christian teaching that man is made in the image of God.

This thorough book is written in an easy-to-read style and matches Dawkins arguments point-by-point. It is the definitive book for college students or faithful Christians hoping to answer Dawkins' claims and assert the logic and beauty of their faith. Parents are encouraged to read it for themselves and then share it with their high school and college aged children. This age group seems to be the target audience of atheists since teens have such a thirst for knowledge and can sometimes be easily swayed.

"Dr. Scott Hahn and Dr. Benjamin Wiker show, again and again, that atheists like Richard Dawkins are putting forth shoddy arguments, and once those arguments are dismantled by cool reason, there is very little left." —Dinesh D’Souza author of What’s So Great About Christianity

Atheists can be irrational too!!!
By Jason from Tyler, TX on April 11, 2009
Pros: Informative; Page-Turner
Best Uses: Older Readers
Describe Yourself: Everyday Reader
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
This book is less about proving the existence of God and more about poking holes in all of Dawkins so-called rationality. There are a lot of scary consequences to following Dawkins' line of reasoning, but I won't spoil it by mentioning them here. The book is a little hard at the beginning if you aren't used to thinking in philosophical terms, but gets easier as you go.
"Game, set, match"
By matthew from Louisville, KY. 40216 on February 13, 2009
Pros: Deserves Multiple Readings; Easy To Read; Informative; Page-Turner; Well Written
Best Uses: Reference
Describe Yourself: Bookworm
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Hahn and Wiker did a great job exposing the errors of Richard Dawkins in this book. I read Dawkins' book "The God Delusion" and i would recommend Hahn and Wiker's book to anyone that has read it, incidentally, i would recommend it to anyone that is interested in Darwinian evolution. The "theory" of Darwinian evolution has left many asking questions that threaten our very belief in a higher being, and anyone questioning God due to atheism MUST read this book!
WOW

Best Uses: Education
Describe Yourself: MEDIUM READER
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
THIS IS THE ONLY BOOK THAT I CAN NOT GET INTO. I KEEP THINKING IS IT TOO DEEP BUT REALLY DON'T KNOW.
