Depends. If you mean fedora tipping, "Mom made me go to church so I'm pissed at her" type atheists, no.
Otherwise, Thomas Nagel is pretty good. I don't always agree with him (which is perfectly fine and natural), but he does present actual philosophical arguments that aren't cringy or flat out retarded/illogical, unlike anything the New Atheists have managed to shit out over 15 years.
