A friend of mine started a blog called Fatalicy (like fatality and fallacy, cute?) where he tries to show how new atheism is undermining science.
He says he wants some healthy debate, he wants his ideas discussed and viewed by atheists.
So if you want some exercise untangling arguments of word-salad and pointing out their flaws, check it out. I know many of you like that kind of thing.

His first post there is a monster with lots of references.
He doesn't seem to know the difference between Philosophical Naturalism and Methodological Naturalism-insisting new atheists are the former.
He thinks math and logic are "incorporeal" and transcendent.
it's got some Transcendental stuff, some presup, a few Roadrunner Tactics, the evolutionary argument against naturalism makes an appearance and a slew of Appeals to Consequences fallacies.
He believes that we are able to know the absolute objective truth somehow.
He thinks this is a smart sophisticated form of theism but it strikes me as a kind of philosophical bullying. Trying to slip people up on epistemology to slide God in there. As a theist myself I'm not the right person to confront him about it so some atheist helpers would be appreciated.
