Is Atheism Dead? Free Audiobook Download by Eric Metaxas

Metaxas, a Greek Orthodox Christian and author of the New York Times best-selling book "Miracles," argues that although the term atheism was coined in 18th-century France, it wasn't until 1976 that it became popularized by American atheist philosopher Antony Flew. He further argues that the decline of atheism is a natural result of biblical Christianity's resurgence.

"I am appalled that atheists think they're winning," Eric Metaxas writes in his new book "Is Atheism Dead?" Well, maybe not quite yet.
