McGrath’s book, in my view, conclusively refutes any claim that “reason and science” can claim some sort of rational superiority to “reason and religion”, and is a masterly exposé of the moral pretensions of the “new atheism”. – Keith Ward * Church Times *Why God Won’t Go Away simply demolishes New Atheism in all departments and in every respect … There’s no way back for it from this. And to think that mild-mannered Alister McGrath delivered the fatal blow. Priceless. * The Church of England Newspaper *Armed with McGrath, the message is clear - it’s time for Christians to embrace science and philosophy without fear, and defend Christianity from the misleading rhetoric of the militant atheists. * Christianity magazine *
