Breaking Down Walls: A Christian and an Atheist in Conversation
Can Christians and atheists discover common ground on the importance of having civil conversations today? Rather than disputing concerns about the existence of God and the afterlife, as important as these concerns are, I ask Drew a ton of questions about his deconversion from Christianity to atheism and how we can have better discussions today throughout the religious divide.
For a run-through of how we fulfilled, take a look at my blog site: “Learning from a Young Atheist” (https://bit.ly/2U9vxFA).

Can Atheists and christians find common ground on the significance of having civil conversations today? That’s what Drew (YouTuber: “Genetically Modified Skeptic”) and I intend for in this video. Rather than debating concerns about the presence of God and the afterlife, as important as these issues are, I ask Drew a heap of questions about his deconversion from Christianity to atheism and how we can have much better discussions today across the religious divide.
