Nietzsche and the Confused Neoatheist | Tom Holland #CLIP

Video Description

Tom Holland examines the incongruence of neoatheist's beliefs and the underlying Christian ethic which informs their behaviour. Tom Holland is an award-winning historian, author and broadcaster. He is the author of many award-winning books on topics ranging from Ancient Rome and the Persian Empire to the origins of the Islamic faith.
