Another "fairy tale" movie
The Case for Christ

Quote:An investigative journalist and self-proclaimed atheist sets out to disprove the existence of God after his wife becomes a Christian.

Wikipedia plot summary

Quote:In 1980, former atheist and award-winning investigative journalist Lee Strobel applies his journalistic and legal skills to attempt to disprove his wife Leslie's newfound Christian faith, which causes issues within his marriage. After completing a thorough investigation for almost two years he finds the historical evidence for Jesus, and then finds a new faith in Christ.

Oh, this will probably be another stilted atheist stereotyping pro-Christian movi-- Oh jesus it's Lee Strobel. This movie will be about as accurate as the Noah movie.

This is not new. It is not impossible for someone who has claimed in the past to be an atheist to fall into a religion. Lee to be honest with you was more thinking with his hormones in a desire to have a companion. He fell for a slick apology nothing more. 

It still remains for any and all religions worldwide, if any individual religion were the unifying theory and could be proven universal there would be only one religion. 

A majority of our species holds a religious label, so what. Billions of Muslims, billions of Christians, countless Jews, and Hindus and Buddhists. Most of which result in the parents handing these societal norms down to their children. Lee may have been an atheist prior, but he still fell for an apology, not anything remotely objective.

I think the real reason he did what he did was his hormones and a desire to want to belong to something and he fell for some very elaborate tripe. And it also didn't hurt him that he made lots of money as a result of his new found conversion. 

He is still stuck with the fact that humans leave one religion for another in all directions all the time. He still is stuck with the fact that other religions exist not just his. He still would ignore that humans make these things up and would not buy his own arguments if those same arguments were used to try to convince him they, and not he, are correct.
