The Grims’ third and highest estimate, $4.8 trillion, includes all the household income of all the Americans who tell Pew researchers they’re affiliated with a specific religious tradition, though even Grim admits that method is “hard to defend.” Let’s focus for a minute, though, on that $1.2 trillion…

RDBook: There is Nothing New About the New Atheism

By Ibrahim Abusharif

…ssociated with the progress of public atheism, “newness” still stands out: new books, new marketing imagination (paid banners on London buses, “There’s probably no God”), new recognition in inaugural addresses, and a hint of new intellectual fashion.
