THE ATHEIST BOOMLET

Peter Berkowitz, a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, wrote about the bevy of new books promoting atheism and decrying the evil of religion in the Opinion Journal yesterday.  His monicker for Dawkins, Dennett, Hitchens, and the rest of the godless gang -- the new new atheists -- is a bit of clunker, but he does a concise job showing what rubbish today's top dogs of atheism are peddling.  I never cease to marvel at the obtuseness of allegedly educated men on this topic.
