Religious apologists are fond of sharing "testimonies"; emotional
stories of the life changing experiences often associated with
religious conversion. But what happens when a person looses faith?
DJ Grothe (associate editor of Free Inquiry Magazine, host of the
Point of Inquiry as well as Vice President and Director of Outreach
Programs for the Center For Inquiry)joins us on the show to share
his personal "de-conversion" story. Jeremy and Dave also comment on
the joys and frustrations of leaving the faith, while Luke shares
some illuminating research comparing the psychology of skeptics
verses the religious when confronted with life's difficult moments.
Also featured is a brief "History of Reasonable Doubts" in the form
of an old time radio short. Please spread the word about Reasonable
Doubts: your skeptical guide to religion offering news and
commentary of interest to skeptics, atheists, humanists, apologists
looking for a challenge and freethinkers of all persuasions.
