#110: Johan Erasmus: Were the New Atheists right?
Playback speed
Following the death of his father as a child, Afrikaner pastor Johan Erasmus struggled to find a place where he could ask sceptical questions about faith, God and the Universe. During this time he discovered CS Lewis, but also Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris and Christopher Hitchens. Here, he tells the first half of his story. You can find out more in the book Coming To Faith Through Dawkins.
