 The August edition of Tabletalk
is out. This month's theme is The "New" Atheism. Articles by R.C. Sproul, Ravi Zacharias, John Blanchard, and other authors look at this new brand of atheism which represents just the latest attack on the Christian faith. Christians would do well to be prepared to face this attack for, as Burk Parsons says, "The trouble with this new atheism is that it is not new at all but is
the same old humanistic sermon that has been proclaimed on the soap box
of cynicism throughout the ages. Nevertheless, perhaps what's most
troubling is that these new atheists employ popular-level arguments in
order to give them the broadest appeal." Instead of being Christians who close our eyes and shut our mouths, hoping that this atheistic nonsense will pass away, we must be Christians who know what we believe and are prepared to defend it.
