Chris Hedges on the dangers of missionary Atheism. (Though he’s disturbingly frank with words that may come off as offensive.)

I hadn’t paid much attention to the work of the New Atheists. After reading what they had written and walking away from these debates, I was appalled at how what they had done for the secular left was to embrace the same kind of bigotry and chauvinism and intolerance that marks the radical Christian right. I found that in many ways they were little more than secular fundamentalists.
