CBNNews.com - It's been called "the new atheism."
It's a new movement against faith and it's led by some best selling authors who believe God is a problem.
Polls indicate that atheists make up just 3 percent of the population in the U.S. but have one of the highest disapproval ratings.
But in the last few years, books about atheism have been very influential. Richard Dawkins' The God Delusion, Daniel Dennett's Breaking the Spell, Samual Harris's Letter to a Christian Nation and Christopher Hitchens' God is Not Great, How Religion Poisons Everything were all best sellers.
Now, former
Time magazine correspondent David Aikman, has written a response to the atheist books called
The Delusion of Disbelief, Why the New Atheism Is a Threat to Your Life, Liberty, and Pursuit of Happiness.
Aikman recently joined the 700 Club to discuss the 'New Atheism' and its implications. Click play to watch the interview.
