Somethings missing from this woman’s testimony. Anyway I hope she’s sincere.

That an atheist would find herself embracing the Church headed by Pope B16 is proof that Fellay is right. /sarc

Good news!

...I guess you were right. (The concept of) “Truth” was a gateway drug...

This is the key. Christ's opposition has been asking "what is Truth?" for two thousand years, and in doing so have ceased to believe that anything is true. Because of it, they have nothing to offer their followers but lies and emptiness. We can pray that more of them tire of it and seek the Truth.

Very interesting. In 20 odd years of being a part of the “skeptic” community I believe this is the first time I’ve heard of an informed atheist (as opposed to your garden variety disbeliever-by-default) converting to Christianity.

Oh well, she’s young and has proven she’s amenable to reason. We’ve got plenty of time to get her back ;)

The new atheists are going to hit her hard. They don’t tolerate dissent very well.

Good for her! I hope she is part of a massive trend.

It's getting late and We, the Lost, need to be called home.

don't you know that there are "Christian snobs" just like there are haters of all kinds. you're never quite as good a little Christian as the ones that stand by the wayside with snide little remarks about not beating your chest, jumping in a river, proclaiming Christ your savior with just the correct amount of contrition and pride.... in otherwords. No matter what this young woman's journey entails the "Christian" police will be right there to make sure she's the "correct" or "real" Christian.

Pathetic.

I'm a fallen Catholic and the worst hypocritical Christian who's only hope is that we have a forgiving God. But the snarky little comments reveal more about those making the comments than the girl who converted.

interesting — on her blog she says “This is also the precis of why I didn’t just pick a nice religion like Deism or UU or certain Protestantism, as some commenters have asked. I didn’t think they seemed coherent and consistent enough.”
