I think some people are dismissing his experience a little too quickly based on the fact that they have all the answers. I think he's smart enough to be somewhat objective in spite of what he's going through. The God debate is by no means resolved. Jumping into a religion out of fear is obviously stupid. But blindly dismissing it is just as bad. I'm not saying anyone here is blindly dismissing it, but I don't think you should tell anyone to just trust your judgment on possibly the most important decision they are ever going to make. Exploring and deciding for oneself is a very healthy process. I'm more interested in hearing about what the experience that made a staunch atheist start reconsidering his views was all about.
