What scares the new atheists
The vocal fervour of today’s missionary atheism conceals a panic that religion is not only refusing to decline – but in fact flourishing

New atheists don’t just have no beliefs in gods or God. They are missionary atheists, evangelical atheists, apologist atheists.

Whereas atheism says, I don’t believe in gods or a God, and lives life, new atheists are vocal- and not just vocal about their right to live without religion. They are actively trying to remove religion from the world, with a special and specific emphasis on Christianity, Islam, and the Catholic Church and priests.

New atheism wants to live in a world without religion, which is not their “right,” any more than the religious people have a “right” to force all people to be religious.

New atheism has a real problem with women, and feminism. New atheism is mainly white men. New atheism has documented problems with IQ and race.

Again, if you identify as an atheist and are completely unaware of these issues, educate yourself. My brother is an atheist and he absolutely is disgusted by “new atheism.” He made me aware of this type of atheism. He is a man who lives completely without religion and belief in God or gods. He isn’t racist and he doesn’t think he’s superior to women. He is not accepted by new atheists because he is a gay man and effeminate. He’s disgusted by the way radical and vocal atheists have taken over and feels embarrassed to be associated with such people. He visits my church occasionally for holiday services and is treated with love and respect by our church and pastor, and even though he doesn’t believe in God, he appreciates being treated with acceptance and kindness.
