"There is only one way to deal with bullies, even in this politically correct world—and that is to crush them."

USA Today bestselling author Anthony DeStefano is tired of playing nice. After years of responding patiently and agreeably to the pseudo-intellectual arguments and tactics of today's militant atheists, he's had enough. In this entertaining, no-holds-barred retort to atheism and its proponents, DeStefano reveals the intellectual bankruptcy at atheism's core and equips believers to respond to its hollow arguments.

A witty and devastating takedown of the "new atheist" position, Inside the Atheist Mind systematically debunks the theories of Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, Sam Harris, and others, revealing how inconsistent, illogical, and frankly ludicrous their conclusions truly are. Poking fun at atheists in a clever and intelligent way, DeStefano demonstrates just how full of holes the new atheism is and reveals that it is actually a "religion" of its own, complete with a creed, a set of commandments and sacraments, and a rigid moral code with rewards and punishments. More than that, DeStefano exposes that atheism is itself a "superstition" of the worst kind.

Using irony and a healthy dose of playful sarcasm, Inside the Atheist Mind lampoons, teases, and deflates the atheist position, unmasking it for what it is—an empty, intellectually barren philosophy, devoid of any logic and common sense.

      This insightful book from DeStefano (A Travel God to Heaven) pushes back against bestselling new atheists such as Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens, and Bill Maher, casting them as arrogant bullies. DeStefano sets out to expose their “blatant hypocrisy, dishonesty, and intellectual bankruptcy” by debunking common atheist complaints about religion, such as putting science and religion in opposition and blaming war and violence on religion. DeStefano notes the “ignorance” of not acknowledging that many scientists (such as Antoine Lavoisier and Louis Pasteur) were believers and arguing that the greatest bloodbaths of the 20th century occurred under atheistic regimes. “Do atheists really need to be reminded that World War II had nothing to do with religion?” he writes, before listing Tojo Hideki, Adolf Hitler, Pol Pot, Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong, and others as genocidal leaders unencumbered by morals due to their atheism. He also discusses the “cowardice of atheists” in targeting Christians more vociferously than Muslims, quoting secular studies teacher Phil Zuckerman as saying, “What keeps me from critiquing Islam is fear.” DeStafano condemns atheist intolerance and dogmatism in statements such as TV host Maher’s “All stupid and dangerous.” DeStefano’s aggressive tone can be off-putting, but readers who can get past it will find many sensible arguments and cogent points about the logic of faith.
