Conservatives vs. liberals. Corporations vs. small farmers. Parents vs. the school board. The government vs. First Nations. The 1% vs. the poor. Often Jesus is invoked as supporting either side, but where would He really stand in these divisive issues?

Dr. Chamberlain examines the claims by New Atheists that religion, including Christianity, is not just foolish but dangerous. Can the belief in an unseen God give way to irrational and dangerous actions? Does religion play a major role in our societal ills? Dr. Chamberlain is sensitive to the actual arguments made by New Atheists and to the way Christians may respond not only intellectually but humbly.
