Initially he began researching criticism of Islam online and in the books of people such as Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens as a means of defending his faith.

His research came from a rich white privieged academic shitlord and a religion-hating Nazi warmonger? No wonder the poor guy was confused!

And just because somebody might think I'm serious with that remark - this article once again shows how much we non-believers owe to people like Dawkins and Hitchens. Here they influenced a guy, trying to DEFEND his religion, into turning 180 degrees and becoming one of us.

So much for those who bash Dawkins as out of touch, irrelevant, etc. Unfortunately Hitchens really is out of touch these days. But even dead, he still makes more sense than most people currently writing about the "atheist movement."
