The New Atheist Threat: The Dangerous Rise of Secular Extremists

The New Atheist Threat is a devastating examination of the evangelical atheist movement. 

CJ Werleman, a journalist and former New Atheist, reveals how the muscular and combative atheism championed by Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, and the late Christopher Hitchens has morphed into a full throated cult that not only threatens secular and democratic values, but also a civil, pluralistic society. 

Werleman demonstrates how, instead of championing empirical evidence and reason, today’s New Atheists promote white supremacy, anti-Muslim bigotry, secular fundamentalism, and thus have become the unwitting pawns of the military-industrial-complex, the homeland-security-industrial complex, Zionism, and U.S. imperialism.

The New Atheist Threat is a timely reminder that fundamentalism and violent extremism is not the sole domain of religion
