What if Richard Dawkins, one of the most prominent voices of New Atheism, actually led some people to investigate Christianity—and ultimately become Christians?

In this re-released episode of Bible and Theology Matters, Dr. Paul Weaver speaks with Dr. Alister McGrath about Richard Dawkins, New Atheism, science and religion, and the surprising stories of people who moved from atheism toward faith in Jesus Christ.

Drawing from Dr. McGrath’s book Coming to Faith Through Dawkins: 12 Essays on the Pathway from New Atheism to Christianity, this conversation explores why some people who were initially persuaded by Dawkins’ arguments against religion eventually began questioning his understanding of Christianity and investigating the Christian faith for themselves.

Dr. McGrath discusses five characteristics of New Atheism that contributed to this unexpected response, including its aggressive attacks on religion, its understanding of the relationship between science and faith, its tone of certainty, and the way its leading voices approached disagreement and criticism.

In this episode, we discuss:
  • Who Richard Dawkins is and his role in the New Atheism movement
  • The God Delusion and Dawkins’ arguments against Christianity
  • The difference between Richard Dawkins’ atheism and Anthony Flew’s philosophical atheism
  • Whether science and Christianity are really in conflict
  • The historical “warfare model” of science versus religion
  • Why some readers of Dawkins began investigating Christianity for themselves
  • Stories of people who moved from New Atheism to faith in Jesus Christ
  • The importance of understanding Christianity before criticizing it
  • The power of personal testimony and storytelling in Christian apologetics
  • How Christians can engage questions and objections to the Christian faith
Dr. Alister McGrath is a theologian, scientist, and intellectual historian who has written extensively on the relationship between science and Christianity, atheism, theology, and Christian apologetics. His academic background includes doctorates in molecular biophysics, theology, and intellectual history, and he spent much of his career teaching at Oxford.

Whether you're interested in Richard Dawkins, New Atheism, atheism and Christianity, science and religion, Christian apologetics, or the evidence for the Christian faith, this conversation offers an engaging look at how questions and objections can sometimes lead people to investigate Christianity more seriously.
