Alister McGrath’s new book “Why God won’t go away” is a critique of the New Atheist Movement spearheaded by Dawkins, Hitchens, Harris & Dennett.
He chats with atheist philosopher Stephen Law about aggressive atheism and its online form. They debate whether religion leads to violence and whether Stephen’s “Evil God challenge” is a defeater for belief in a good God.
