Sorry, but everything I read indicates that Armstrong was an atheist. His mother was a devout Christian.
Sorry, I should change that to deist.
Even if you are not a Christian, this was history documented in the writings of Flavius Josephus about “The Teacher”
Walking around the Old City, you are constantly reminded of things that had happened there.
Mine was at the Mt of Olives when you suddenly realize Jesus stood withing 100 ft of where I was standing.
Why would an atheist get excited to walk on the same rocks as Christ? Find me an atheist that would get excited over that.
