by: Trent HornToday's popular champions of atheism are often called New Atheists, because they don't just deny God's existence (as the old atheists did), t hey consider it their du ty to scorn and ridicule religious belief. But there's nothing really answer about their arguments. They're the same basic objections to theism that mankind has wrestled with for centuries.We don't need new answers for this aggressive modern strain of unbelief: We need a new approach.In Answering Atheism, Trent Horn responds to that need with a fresh and useful resource for the God debate, combining a thorough refutation of atheist claims with a skillfully constructed case for theism based on reason and common sense. Just as important, he advocates a charitable approach that respects atheist sincerity and good will making this book suitable not just for believers but for skeptics and seekers too.Meticulously researched, and street-tested in Horn work as a pro-God apologist, Answering Atheism tackles all the major issues of the debate.Answering Atheism gets high grades on the three R's: It is readable, reasonable, and researched. Its defense of the cosmological argument has depth and detail, yet it is not so technical that you need to take a philosophy course to comprehend it. -- Peter Kreeft, professor of philosophy, Boston CollegeISBN: 9781938983436.Trade Paperback. 335 pages.
