The Atheist Who Didn't Exist by Andy Bannister
Addressing some of the more popular atheist arguments about the Christian faith, making space for a deeper and more honest discussion about the big questions of life.
"Andy Bannister provides a set of powerful and accessible arguments that can be used by ordinary people in responding to the tsunami of atheist sound bites flooding public discourse in the WestHis tongue-in-cheek humor gives a certain lightness which does not in any way undermine the rigor and force of the book's arguments. This is not a negative study--though atheism is certainly taken to the cleaners--but it is also profoundly positive in presenting compelling arguments for the central claims of Christianity." -- Dr. Peter Riddell, Professorial Research Associate, SOAS, University of London
"Every atheist vs. believer debate I've been to has made me want to gouge out my eyes with a spoon. Bannister's book, however, is exactly what this skeptical believer needed." -- Drew Marshall, radio host
"In a brilliant work that is as humorous as it is damaging to atheist arguments, Bannister demonstrates the consequences of implementing new atheist arguments into real life (that is, out of the realm of stuffy office speculations). His work is a wild ride that takes the reader from stories to theory to end game. Writing with eloquence and imagination, he illustrates the supposed 'safe ground' of new atheist thought as truly no ground at all." -- Mary Jo Sharp, Houston Baptist University
"This is a remarkable and timely book. Apologetics has to mature and evolve into the 21st century and this intelligent, funny and elegant work is precisely what we are looking for." -- Michael Coren, broadcaster, author and journalist
