How can this happen?

It's not like any new evidence for God has been brought up recently, or will any time soon, yet there are plenty of new-age atheist arguments coming in every day.

Desperation. The position they find themselves in is so irredeemable that they're faced with a simple choice;
Integrity or happiness. You put enough shit on someone and they'll do stupid shit, one of those things might be to reject reality in favor of a world view thats more tolerable. Interrogators and preachers are similar in that they both look for the pressure points in the human psyche then exploit them leaving a shell in their wake.
Everyone has a breaking point.
