The books and essays of the "new atheists" (like Dawkins, Harris, Dennet and the Silverman you reviewed) cannot interest me.

The books of Jonathan Haidt, Steven Pinker, Matt Ridley, Frans de Waal and others are the future of skeptical atheism.

Again ur talking abt the postmodernists. New Atheists are the ones who are equally critical of Islam &more worried abt it

They criticise Islam because of the problems it causes. It is OK to be anti-theistic just as its OK to be pro-theistic.
