Publisher's Synopsis
"I don't believe in God because I don't believe in fairy tales." Perhaps you've heard this before.. You might be surprised to learn that many of the most common accusations made by anti-theists are based on false information. While atheists may claim to use reason and science, most of their accusations are based on fallacies.The majority of atheists are good people. Most keep to themselves. They simply don't see enough evidence to justify the existence of any deity. This book is not about them. This book is about the anti-theist atheist.This subgroup found within atheism is sometimes referred to as the New Atheism or even as Fundamentalist Atheism. They are crass, disrespectful and militant in their opposition to all people of faith. This book exposes the disingenuous nature of their defamation.In Atheist Fairy Tales, we look at 100 common misleading accusations that anti-theist extremists make about Christianity and the Bible. We also include the testimonies of well-known scientists and academics who are former atheists as well as current atheists who also take issue with the rise of the "New Atheism."We examine issues such as: Is religion really the cause of most of the world's problems?Has evolution proven that Adam and Eve didn't exist?Does the Bible teach hate?Does the Bible really say the earth is only six-thousand years old?Is Christianity responsible for The Crusades?Is atheism more tolerant than religion?Does the Bible promote racism?Is Christianity sexist?Are most wars the result of religion?Does the Bible promote violence?Did Christians really kill witches at Salem?...and many othersA must-have for the thoughtful person of faith!
