Michael A. Sherlock is an atheist author, or "New Atheist" author, although he rejects the label New Atheist as being nothing more than a derogatory nomenclature describing atheists who refuse to simply sit idly by and say nothing while religion wreaks havoc on our planet. His work has received the praise of Richard Dawkins and in one review he was called "the next Christopher Hitchens". Sherlock, as he is often called, was born and raised in Sydney, Australia. He spent many years in Tasmania, where he studied social anthropology, sociology, political science and Law at the University of Tasmania. Sherlock is currently studying a Master's Degree in Religion at the University of New England. Sherlock's aim as an author is to expose the "sacred" lies, frauds and forgeries of religion. Sherlock says: "Before we can clear a path to finding truth, whatever that may be, we must first neutralize the filth which has infected the minds of so many...Supernaturalism, superstition, pseudo-science, and religion, all embody this mental filth, and the scientific method, with its humble, honest and evidence-based approach to questions of probable truth, represents the neutralizer."
