The arguments of 'New Atheism' have been as boisterous as they have been flawed. Yet, not until the arrival of this book Atheist Delusions: The Christian Revolution and its Fashionable Enemies, has anyone so forcefully, so completely, and so compellingly dismantled atheistic arguments.
Taking on intellectual heavy hitters such as Christopher Hitchens and Richard Dawkins, David Bentley Hart has penned an outstanding and debilitating argument that Richard John Neuhaus believes 'smites' the 'recycl[ed] hoary arguments' of the 'New Atheism' while John Milbank goes so far to suggest, 'Dawkins, Hitchens, et al, would never have dared put pen to paper' had they believed God could create a thinker like David Bentley Hart.
Learned, provocative, and exceptionally philosophically sophisticated, this book is a must read for anyone engaging in this great and long lasting philosophical debate. This book may, perhaps, provide a turning point and foundation upon which Atheism as a philosophy may cease to exist and new Christian revolution be ignited.
