The Changing World of Atheism

By Paul Chamberlain

The case for atheism is being vigorously advanced today throughout the world of social media and in a flurry of recent books. But this case is being made differently in ways that are often confusing for Christians who attempt to engage their atheist friends. It begins with a shift in the definition of atheism. This shift in wording is often unnoticeable in conversation but can be profound in its impact. The modified interpretation of atheism is more ambiguous than the traditional clear definition and eliminates the clear dividing line between atheism and agnosticism. While this may seem purely theoretical, it sets up a different and confusing strategy used by atheists to promote their view, one that puts Christians on the defensive by shifting the burden of proof entirely onto them. This is the new enviable position that many atheists are carving out for themselves in twenty-first-century discussions. This book is intended to be a map for readers who wish to track with these changes and develop thoughtful responses to them so they can talk with their atheist friends and neighbors more constructively.
