Alex O’Connor is the founder
Alex O’Connor is the founder of the popular YouTube channel Cosmic Skeptic and host of the Within Reason podcast. This dialogue explored themes from Justin Brierley’s latest book "The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God: Why New Atheism Grew Old and Secular Thinkers Are Considering Christianity Again".
Justin Brierley has hosted discussions between atheists and Christians for seventeen years. In this event, Alex challenged Justin on a number of concerns, ranging from the validity of the data behind his “rebirth of belief in God” thesis, the possibility of a politicised and violent rise of “belief in the utility of belief in God”, and he also surprised everybody with a spontaneous poem recital!
The event was chaired by Patrick Brown of The Trinity Forum Europe. Discussion followed by Q&A.
