Reason, Faith, and Revolution, by Terry Eagleton

This book explains why Hitchens, Dawkins, et.al, take an overly simple view of religion and tacitly support a questionable ideology. Young people who found the "New Atheists" appealing need to get past their rhetorical appeal and see what else is going on. (Eagleton has a sharp sense of humor and good politics: his book On Evil is dedicated to Henry Kissinger.)

Seven Types of Atheism, by John Gray

Adult atheists have concluded that the metaphysical claims made by religions are unpersuasive. This may well be true, but no such conclusion exists in isolation -- it needs a more complete system of commitments about what is true. Gray explains some of the more important outlooks which help us conclude that religious claims are untrue.
