Let me know what you think about Dr. Whitaker's conversion.
Who cares if he became a believer? What matters is whether he became a believer for good reasons or bad reasons.
A quick internet search will quickly lead to the conclusion that he became a believer for bad reasons.
Did he find demonstrable evidence for the existence of the god he now believes in?
No.
