1. I don't think it's stupid, but this passage was kind of harsh

"But we (the media) can't shoulder all the blame. The atheists are, more than other interest groups, joyous cannibals and regurgitators of their own ideas. They thrive online, where like adolescent boys they rehash their rhetorical victories to their own delight."

She has obviously never viewed DU and Free Republic or any other forum about politics.

But as far as coming up with new ways to talk about religion and atheism, especially between believers and non-believers, I can dig that. The problem with that, though, is that being 12% of the population and unpopular to begin with, we don't usually get a fair hearing.
