      Helen, I have read much on the subject now and spoken to James, who is not the only author. It offers nothing new or unique.

      And this contradicts what James said about many atheists already being posttheists how? You're arguing against claims not made.

      Well, if James says the approach already exists but advocates more of us take it, why do you keep saying its not new?

      He's saying that's what post-theism is. He's simply taking his favorite tactics already in use and calling those a new name.

      Pretty much, yes, because those are the positive tactics of a mindset which refuses to take religion on its own terms.

      Is that bad? Reviewing different atheist approaches to religion & advocating the positive ones as the way forward?

      In EIWAG, you see the reasoning for arguing these approaches to be best which are based in moral & religious psychology.

      Is it the name you dislike? If so, what wld you advocate calling a mindset which has moved beyond taking religion on own terms

      Atheism is just the disbelief in gods. Atheists may or may not have this particular mindset.
