An Atheist's Perspective on the Value of Religion

This is a great interview with an atheist who wants to defend religion (as good for society and individuals). I was moved by his honesty from being nervous to talk on the show and admitting he is not a “happy atheist”. I was most deeply moved by his saying he finds Christ to be beautiful. Todd Wilken put it well at the end. If there is a God and Christ is not real his first question will be “why not? He is so beautiful”. Great job by the host at being a witness and giving testimony to the person of Jesus Christ rather then getting side tracked with fundamentalist dogma. Give it a listen and see what you think.
