Are the New Atheists Less Honest than the Old Atheists?

New Atheists like Sam Harris reject belief in God but want to retain values like compassion, tolerance, democracy, individual human rights, and equality. Older atheists like Friedrich Nietzsche and Jean-Paul Sartre, or Ivan Karamazov in Fyodor Dostoevsky's great novel The Brothers Karamazov, saw atheism as having grimmer moral implications. The question: which expression of atheism is more authentic? Truth Unites is a mixture of apologetics and theology, with an irenic focus.
