(January 20, 2010 at 4:26 pm)Tiberius Wrote: The new atheist movement was fueled by Sam Harris' book "The End of Faith" which was written after the 9/11 attacks. I think that was around the time everyone started publishing atheist books.

Which essentially goes hand in hand about being fed up. It's no surprise that when the Nation took a severe swing toward the religious right when Bush was elected in '04 that there was a non-religious backlash, and books are a great medium for gaining momentum.
"The way to see by faith is to shut the eye of reason." Benjamin Franklin
