EPISODE 8 - Ayaan Hirsi Ali: A New Atheist embraces Christianity
A production of Think Faith in partnership with Genexis, and support from The Jerusalem Trust and the Christian Evidence Society.
The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God podcast with Justin Brierley.
Ayaan Hirsi Ali recently announced her conversion to Christianity. The Somali-born ex-Muslim was one of the key voices of New Atheism in the mid 2000s but created a big stir when she published an article titled 'Why I am a now a Christian'.
In this bonus episode Justin speaks to Elizabeth Oldfield and Glen Scrivener about Hirsi Ali's story, hearing clips from her interviews and responses from critics who claim her embrace of Christianity is politically motivated rather than a spiritual conversion.
