“But if the statistics tell us anything, it’s that this phenomenon has evaporated. People aren’t on the whole very enthusiastic about going to church, but most Americans still believe in some kind of god….Davis thinks the reason why is clear: New Atheism’s scorched-earth policy taught people to burn, but not build.” - The Dispatch
