>Why don't we like new atheists?
because you're a bunch of special fucking snowflakes who don't like your beliefs being questioned
Ok, I'm mad
New atheists are incapable of questioning our beliefs, as they can't understand them.
you can read? try reading that again. What do I say about 'new atheists'?
>ignorance, weak arguments and pretension
It's possible to not be that sort of thinker, and at the same time also not be a fucking christian. I dunno, I quite like not being either of the species of coward at hand.
the concept of anxiety by kierkegaard
i and thou by buber
If you want some actual philosophical proofs for the existence of God (as well as a better understanding of what we even mean when we talk about God) then you should read some Thomas Aquinas, arguably the greatest theologian in history.
Of course it's really really hard to read Aquinas if you haven't studied him before, because he uses language that you won't only not know, but you'll actually think means something other than it does (one random example of something that trips people up, "motion" for Aquinas doesn't just mean movement through space, but any actualization of a potentiality. And "potentiality" and "actuality" ALSO have specific meanings, etc etc). Therefore I'd suggest reading some Edward Feser, who is a contemporary philosophy who is excellent at explaining Aquinas to people unfamiliar with medieval philosophy.
Try "Aquinas" by Edward Feser. If you want something that specifically addresses New Atheism then try "The Last Superstition."
>Christians are cowards
Have you carried your cross?
In the west you may be right. Although it is hard to say, we have been specifically nurtured by public schools to harbor great burdens in relation to our faith and its publicity. In the Middle-East, Africa, South America, Asia - do you find more courageous people?

>Thomas Aquinas, arguably the greatest theologian in history.
Hes not even the best scholastic theologian.
>If you want something that specifically addresses New Atheism then try "The Last Superstition."
I second this, but beware this is Feser at his most cringiest and the first 1/3rd of the book is effectively a mirror image of new athiesm
>my super special thoughts are so deep and meaningful nobody can understand them
>i'm literally the most unique person to have ever existed
oh grow up you daft little turd
>Thomas Aquinas, arguably the greatest theologian in history
and the one whose arguments are the easiest to dismiss
