"At last! Mr. Day has made a much-needed contribution to the religious/atheist controversy by significantly raising the intellectual level of the entire debate." - Jacob Needleman, author of "Why Can't We Be Good?" and "The American Soul"
On one side of the argument is a collection of godless academics with doctorates from the finest universities in England, France and the United States. On the other is "Irrational Atheist" author & WorldNetDaily columnist Vox Day, armed with nothing more than historical and statistical facts. Presenting a compelling argument, Day strips away the pseudo-scientific pretensions of New Atheism with his intelligent application of logic, history, military science, political economy and well-documented research. The arguments of Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens, Daniel Dennett and Michel Onfray are all methodically exposed and discredited as Day provides extensive evidence proving, among other things, that:
* More than 93 percent of all the wars in human history had no relation to religion * The Spanish Inquisition had no jurisdiction over professed Jews, Muslims or atheists, and executed fewer people on an annual basis than the state of Texas * Atheists are 3.84 times more likely to be imprisoned than Christians * "Red" state crime is primarily committed in "Blue" counties * Sexually abused girls are 55 times more likely to commit suicide than girls raised Catholic * In the twentieth century, atheistic regimes killed three times more people in peacetime than those killed in all the wars and individual crimes combined
"Vox Day treats atheist icons Dawkins, Harris and Hitchens the way Ann Coulter hammers liberals, only less gently." - Joseph Farah, WorldNetDaily
