Atheist Paul Kurtz's book The Turbulent Universe - a zero Amazon rating. The book Atheism for Dummies has a 4.5 Amazon star rating. Also, another reason the so-called expansion of atheism is bluster and mirage

Paul Kurtz is the father of secular humanism and he recently passed away.  Up until a few minutes ago when an atheist was no doubt embarrassed by Paul Kurtz's  lack of a legacy, the atheist Paul Kurtz's book The Turbulent Universe had a zero Amazon rating.  The book Atheism for Dummies has a 4.5 Amazon star rating.

Another sign the so-called rapid expansion of atheism is bluster and a mirage

Publishers Weekly published an article which declared concerning Prometheus Books, which is a leading publisher of atheist books:
Prometheus Books has published in the category since its founding in 1969. This spring, Prometheus’ list includes five atheism titles, among them God and the Atom by Victor J. Stenger (April), 50 Simple Questions for Every Christian by Guy P. Harrison (Mar.), and The Outsider Test for Faith: How to Know Which Religion Is True by John W. Loftus (Mar.). Maxick credits the New Atheists with bringing what was a niche topic to a broader audience. However, since then, she says, “we haven’t seen the trend as impactful. The wave tapered off to a more traditional level of sales.

News service reports reports that religious affiliation is seeing a marked global resurgence. Global atheism and agnosticism have been shrinking since 2000 

Another crisis hitting Darwinism, atheism and agnosticism - Eurocrisis is causing secular Europe to have falling fertility rates. Creationism does well in economic hard times 

British academic Eric Kaufmann says "the rate of secularisation has flattened to zero in most of Protestant Europe and France". Also, Kaufmann writes that secularism "appears exhausted and lacking in confidence"
