Sample Book Insights:
#1 I had come to visit the anti-church, a shrine to the science and reason that many skeptics believe squeezes out the legitimacy of faith. I was meeting my polar opposite: a skeptic who had turned from faith to doubt.
#2 I wanted to interview Shermer because I wanted to hear his side of the story about miracles. I wanted to understand why he was against them, and I wanted to learn how to be open-minded without my brain falling out.
#3 When high school senior Michael Shermer read John 3:16 - For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life - and put his trust in Jesus as his Lord and Savior, a coyote howled outside.
#4 I asked Shermer why he had lost his faith. He said that it had happened gradually, on his own, which is how it usually happens. He didn’t think you could reason people out of something they didn’t reason their way into in the first place.
