It's clear what doesn't add up about his claims:
He fit a very theist stereotype of being an Atheist. Then he switched to the other side of the spectrum, jumping several hurdles with absolutely no skepticism. For example, he KNEW it wasn't a dream. He looked for no other possible explanation. He jumped right on the Jesus Bandwagon. It just screams of someone who has no idea what it's like to become an atheist. "I denied the reality before me" That doesn't sound like something a former atheist would say. They might say "I didn't see the evidence" or "The experience showed me the way when nothing else did." An Atheist is also likely to have many more questions than "WHAT ABOUT THE BIBLE?" They'd ask about specifics that bothered them if they didn't find it to be true. It all adds up to him lying about being an atheist. I would not be surprised in the least to learn he was a liar.

The whole tone of Church teaching in regard to woman is, to the last degree, contemptuous and degrading. - Elizabeth Cady Stanton
