teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Atheism is an empty space it's the non acceptance of the theistic claim of the existence of god and no there is nothing atheists need to defend as there is no claim being made .

And yet, the US is widely considered to be among the the most christian of developed countries. Christers run screaming from what this says about their beliefs.
