The New New Atheists

I have been hearing a lot about the "new new atheist". They are the good atheists as opposed to the bad militant disrespectful atheists like most of us here.

The new new atheist agrees that our modern civilization and morality is entirely due to Judeo-Christian roots and that our modern world would not survive the death of religion.

The new new religion agrees that modern science would have been impossible without Christianity.

The new new atheist agrees that Christian apologists make a number of excellent points for which atheists have no answer.

In particular the new new atheist believes that intelligent design delivers a.powerful blow to Darwinism.

The new new atheist agrees that there is a "God shaped hole" in the naturalist worldview.

The new new atheists favourite start to a sentence is "I'm an atheist but..."

Well you get it. The new new atheist is the Washington Generals of atheism.

I have encountered new new atheists on social media and have found there is really nothing to do but mute or block them.

I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered the new new atheist and how you deal with them.
