As an atheist I have never read any of these articles about former atheists that convince me even a little, and this one is no exception. But I'd rather read a hundred of these pieces than one more "God is dead" self-loathing dirge.

Gotta give guys like Strobel that much, anyway: being related to Jesus seems to give them a lot more enjoyment than taking up permanent residence in a materialist Slough of Despond.

When it comes to Christian apologists, I prefer Chesterton [Orthodoxy; The Everlasting Man] to Strobel.

Thank you for that link. I've tried to find Chesterton on the web beforewithout too much success but this site is wonderful. Just finished reading the essay on Babies. So true!
