  strega nona summary: Summary of Paul Copan's Is God a Moral Monster? Everest Media,, 2022-08-23T22:59:00Z Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The New Atheism is a recent movement of god-deniers writing bestsellers. It’s been said that the four horsemen of the Neo-atheistic apocalypse are Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens, and Daniel Dennett. #2 The Christian faith has an image problem, and it is largely due to the New Atheists. They have capitalized on the West’s increasingly post-Christian status to tar all things religious with the same brush. But most people do not consider themselves atheists just because they have no church. #3 The New Atheists are right to point out that all religious believers are guilty of ignorance, immorality, and hypocrisy. They are also wrong to assume that their arguments against God’s existence are intellectually rigorous. #4 The New Atheists are not willing to accept the positive influence of Christian faith in the world, and they refuse to acknowledge the atrocities committed in the name of atheism by Stalin, Pol Pot, and Mao Zedong.
