Description
The “New Atheists” such as Richard Dawkins are hardly new.
Their nineteenth-century counterparts also labored to conflate evolution and atheism.
They met their match in the person of John Zahm—priest, scientist, philosopher, and South American explorer—who deftly untangled evolution from atheism.
Zahm’s arguments provide a response every bit as robust today to the New Atheists’ view of God and of science.
