Part 1 of a 3-part interview with Benjamin
Wiker and Scott Hahn, authors of Answering the New Atheism:
Dismantling Dawkins' Case Against God.
You've heard
of the "Great Books"?
These are their evil opposites. From Machiavelli's
The Prince to Karl Marx's The Communist Manifesto
to Alfred Kinsey's Sexual Behavior in the Human Male, these
"influential" books have led to war, genocide, totalitarian
oppression, family breakdown, and disastrous social experiments.
And yet these authors' bad ideas are still
popular and pervasive--in fact, they might influence your own thinking
without your realizing it.
In this scintillating new book, Benjamin
Wiker seizes each of these evil books by its malignant heart and
exposes it to the light of day.
Are You Able to Answer the
Arguments of an Atheist?
Scott Hahn and Benjamin Wiker provide readers
with sharp logic and clear reasoning, exposing the muddle-headed
thinking behind Dawkins’ veneer of intellectual rigor.
Along the way, Hahn and Wiker offer a cogent
and convincing argument for God’s existence.
"Rarely, if ever, in my many years
as a professor of philosophy did I ever have the opportunity to
read such a compelling argument."
—Antony Flew
