I ask myself what works by seeing the results.I must have been living under a rock or forgot that there was ever a movie called The Case for Christ. I've watched the documentary version by Lee Strobel and I thought it was very good.
I thought the documentary was compelling, especially when it involves an atheist converting to Christianity based off of research. At best, the documentary reinforced my view that Jesus was a historical figure. I can also accept that much of Jesus's teachings can be true in a practical sense, while also not accepting that he is a god.. I've applied the Christian teachings on forgiveness and I can definitely see the positives. But there are also some negatives about the Bible, as well. Either way, I'd want more evidence than just experience before I accept that Jesus was anything more than a historical figure.
How many atheists have changed their view because of a debate?
None.
How many have changed because of experience?
Many. One big name is Dr. Even Alexander.
