Fascinating exchange between Richard Dawkins and newly converted Christian, Ayaan Hirsi Ali.
“You go to church now, and you listen to the vicar, do you kind of notice what a load nonsense he talks?”
“What the vicar says no longer sounds nonsensical, it makes a great deal of sense. And not only does it make a great deal of sense, it’s also layered with the wisdom of millennia. Like you, I did mock faith in general, probably Christianity in particular but, I do not do that anymore.”
To my brothers and sisters who have not yet come to faith, I was an atheist for 27 years before becoming a theist at 28 and later a Christian, and once you realise that you were lied to about Jesus Christ, and that the evidence overwhelmingly points to him, you’re strapped in for greatest awakening of all time.
