YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

How can you make an atheist believe in god? Can you convert an atheist? Well, if you make the mistakes which I discuss here, you won't have much success. If someone sent you this video, please take this as a gentle reminder to listen to the atheists with whom you speak before making assumptions. We'd all get along better in a world where more people listen to each other.

A lot of people have tried to convert me. Popular arguments I receive are Pascal's wager, the kalam cosmological argument, the moral argument, the teleological argument, the case for the resurrection of Jesus, arguments from personal experience, arguments from miracles, and a LOT of threats. Rarely does anyone listen to me before trying to convert me. If they did, our conversation would actually be meaningful rather than a waste of time. You're not going to convince me to go from atheist to Christian (or any other faith) if you don't know why I went from Christian to atheist. That's my best advice to someone who wants to know how to convert an atheist.
