Kwa muhtasari, ni vigumu kuthibitisha kwamba hoja za kisayansi dhidi ya Mungu, hoja ya usanifu (design argument), na dini, zimeshindwa kuzalisha matokeo ya kuacha imani kwa ajili ya harakati ya ‘New Atheism’ ndani ya jamii za imani za Kikristo na Kiislamu katika ulimwengu wa lugha ya Kiingereza, ingawa zimezalisha shaka miongoni mwa watu wa dini. Kura ya maoni iliyofanywa kwenye chaneli ya YouTube inayoendeshwa na mshawishi wa Kiislamu mwenye wafuasi 254,000 na aliyebobea katika ‘kutoa hoja kwa ajili ya Uislamu na kuwaelimisha watu kuhusu Uislamu’, ilijaribu kubaini chanzo cha shaka kwa kusema: ‘Majibu ya maswali haya bila shaka hayataonyesha majina, kwa hiyo tafadhali jibu kwa ukweli iwezekanavyo. Ikiwa wewe ni Mwislamu, ni nini kinachokufanya utilie shaka dini yako zaidi kati ya chaguzi zifuatazo: Hoja za kimaadili dhidi ya Uislamu, hoja za kisayansi kutoka kwa wanatheolojia wa Kiatheisti, hoja za ukweli wa dini nyingine, au udhaifu wa ‘ustaarabu wa Kiislamu’ (Hijab, n.d., Imerejeshwa Aprili 11, 2020). Watu 7,200 walijibu uchunguzi huo bila kutaja majina, huku 48% wakikiri maadili kuwa chanzo kikuu cha shaka, 21% hoja za kisayansi kutoka kwa New Atheists, 7% hoja za ukweli wa dini nyingine, na 24% udhaifu wa ‘ustaarabu’ wa Kiislamu.

In sum, it is difficult to evidence that scientific arguments against God, the design argument, and religion, have failed to produce apostatising results for the cause of ‘New Atheism’ within Christian and Muslim faith communities in the English-speaking world, although they have generated doubts within religious people. A poll conducted on a YouTube channel hosted by a Muslim influencer, with 254,000 followers and specialising in ‘arguing the case for and educating people about Islam’, sought to assess the cause of doubt by stating: ‘The answers to these questions are obviously anonymous, so please answer as truthfully as possible. If you are a Muslim, what causes you to doubt your religion the most from the following options: Moral arguments against Islam, scientific arguments from Atheist apologists, arguments for the truth of another religion or weaknesses of the ‘Islamic civilisation’ (Hijab, n.d., Retrieved April 11, 2020). 7,200 people responded anonymously to the survey with 48% acknowledging morality as the leading cause for doubt, 21% scientific arguments from New Atheists, 7% for the arguments for the truth of another religion and 24% on the weaknesses of the Islamic ‘civilisation’.

Uchunguzi huu pamoja na utafiti uliofanywa kuhusu shaka na Chouhoud na wengine, ambao ulitajwa hapo awali, unathibitisha kwamba hoja za New Atheism zina athari fulani katika jamii za Waislamu na Wakristo. Ingawa hoja hizi si mpya kihistoria, nguvu ya hoja za 'sayansi' katika vitabu na nyenzo za mijadala vya New Atheism, ikilinganishwa na maoni mengine ya kijamii, inafanya athari za hoja hizi ziweze kutengwa na kufanyiwa utafiti. Hoja za kimaadili na kifalsafa za kisiasa, ambazo zilionyeshwa kusababisha shaka zaidi na kuacha dini kwa Waislamu na Wakristo katika ulimwengu wa lugha ya Kiingereza, si eneo la kiakili la New Atheists pekee. Hatimaye, inaonekana kwamba New Atheists wanapoteza umaarufu na kuvutia hadhira ya vijana hatua kwa hatua. Richard Dawkins alikuwa na wastani wa alama 100 kwenye Google Trends mnamo Novemba 2006 (baada ya kuchapishwa kwa The God Delusion), akishuka hadi alama 19 tu za kulinganisha mwaka 2019, baada ya kuchapishwa kwa Outgrowing God. Kwa kuzingatia takwimu hizi, inaonekana ni vigumu kusema kwamba New Atheism itakuwa na athari ya kudumu kwa idadi ya watu na dini zao siku zijazo.

This poll together with the research conducted on doubt by Chouhoud and others that were previously mentioned, confirms that New Atheist arguments have some influence on Muslim and Christian communities. Though the arguments are not historically novel, the forcefulness of the ‘science’ arguments in New Atheist books and debate material, comparative to other social commentaries, make the effect of these arguments isolatable and researchable. Moral and politically philosophical arguments, which were shown to cause more doubt and apostasy for Muslims and Christians in the English-speaking world, are not the exclusive intellectual domain of the New Atheists. Finally, it would seem that New Atheists are steadily losing traction and popularity among younger audiences. Richard Dawkins had an average point score of 100 on Google Trends in November 2006 (following publication of the God Delusion) dropping to a meagre 19 comparative points in 2019 after the publication of Outgrowing God. Considering these stats, it seems difficult to argue that New Atheism will have any lasting demographic effect on religiosity in the future.
