So this is the piece we get when you find a conversion tweet? We gotta lock you in a room with an iphone and get a series out of you.

Really though, what an outstanding piece! You make very good arguments. The two that I particularly appreciated were, in laymens terms, "What do you have to lose by accepting an all knowing, all loving god?" and my favorite, based on the evidence available, the burden of proof does not lie on Christianity.

Have you ever read the book "I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist"? A massively important book of Christian apologetics. I know your outstanding blog post here didn't really have room to go into all the real evidence that Christianity is true, but this book brings up a lot of extremely valid and at least by me, unknown concepts.

Yes, one of my favorites! I agree with a lot of the points made in that book, although this post is mainly aimed at those who don't find those points overwhelmingly convincing. I think that even if you aren't totally convinced by these arguments, people should still commit to Christianity because it's such an optimistic worldview.
