That's exactly what this book will do -- and far better than I could argue it myself. Don't let the title scare you away. Read it. See if you can argue against it without cutting and pasting from talkorigins or positveatheism.

On the contrary. I am currently studying the works of Joseph Campbell. Now I know he's not a "Christian turned atheist" but he definately defends a less than Christian philosophy. It has been very educational. I'll make you a deal: You read Mere Christianity (I can send it to you on tape if that's easier) and I'll read one of your favorites.
