Are the “new atheists” attacking a “straw god”?

There’s a post at Debunking Christianity that is worth a look. It’s “The Straw God: Understanding The New Atheism” by Douglas Groothuis. On Monday I am debating the God Delusion with Marianne Talbot at a Fringe event at the Ox Lit Festival. Rewley House, 1 wellington Square. 7pm. Late bar. Entrance free.
