What are some good writers on atheism? I'm not a fan of new atheism.

I recently started to get interested in this topic . I remember John Gray being overall good and surprisingly fun to read. He recently wrote a book: "Seven Types of Atheism" (I haven't read it tho, any anon who did?). His review of Pinker's book and some other stuff he writes, is spot on and makes these kind of modern pop-intellectual-type-wisdom-spreaders mad. > muh classical liberalism.

Schopenhauer goes so beyond everything that calling him just an atheist is wrong.

I though you were just memeing just because Sam Harris and Ben Stiller look alike but it's actually Ben Stiller, what the fuck.
