Post Dear Mr. Harrison
thanks for the book! I'm about half way through as I submit this question and I'm enjoying the book a lot.

I wholeheartedly agree that the best approach one can take with a religious person is to get them to actually think about what they believe. I recognize getting some of them to do so is better than not. But do you think many of them will?

Post potential question....
As someone who has written about about refuting reasons to believe in god, what do you think is the best reason to believe in god, or perhaps which of the 'rebuttals' in the book is the 'weakest'?
