      Lol. Religious Rightists who don't want Christianity criticised want to point out the problem of Leftists not wanting Islam criticised 1/2

      But they don't want 'New Atheists' either. I don't think they need worry. They weren't offering themselves to themhttp://www.nationalreview.com/article/449931/new-atheists-american-left-wing-schism-islam-organized-religion …

      The fact that liberal 'New Atheists' are condemned by the far-left & far-right is very much to their credit. By me:https://areomagazine.com/2017/05/15/where-now-for-new-atheists/ …

          "Liberal New Atheist" is an oxymoron. There r NA's who may support some liberal issues but they aren't libs.&they sure as hell ain't Lefties

          At this point the New Atheists are condemned even by pretty moderate liberals.

          They lost me when, faced with rising islamophobia, they contributed to it rather than confronting it on the grounds of simply being right.

          They are right, but there are many things much more important than being right and relentlessly asserting your rightness.

          Addressing the problem of religion in general & Islam in particular is one of them.

          Standing up for people who are being targeted on the basis of the religion they happen to have been born into is another.

          Absolutely! You'll not find 'New Atheists' very tolerant of blaming ppl for the religion they were born into. Many are ex-Muslim.

          Failure to place science front & centre is a grave problem. Some atheists are very weak to this - replacing faith with dogma

          Atheists may or may not value science but the 'new atheist' ethos certainly did.

          Always thought" New Atheists" had a whiff of the pejorative. If religion sat in the corner and didn't disrupt class we wdn't have to shout.
