"Exvangelical" Drew McCoy (aka The Genetically Modified Skeptic) continue to explore how religion and conspiracies overlap. Are non-believers playing followers? What's Drew's personal journey to becoming the atheist and conspiracy buster he is now?

Drew McCoy, aka Genetically Modified Skeptic, is a fundamentalist Evangelical Christian turned agnostic/atheist. With John, Jerry and Adam, they explore the position of conspiracy theories throughout religion in general.

-AUDIO WARNING-The first few minutes of the call with Drew includes an echo. We are able to resolve the echo within a few minutes, but feel free to skip to 3:30 if the echo is unbearable.Personal friend and fellow YouTuber Drew aka Genetically Modified Skeptic joins the show today! Before we take calls, he shares how he has taken a scholarly approach to trans issues and has been going to bat for the community in responses to seriously bad arguments made by the religious right. Here is a link to the videos that Drew is referring to during the intro. If you haven't seen them, check them out! They're fantastic!https://youtu.be/ABojJ2rW6vA?si=GEOcTJ75tss5FfIAhttps://youtu.be/22W7I3yV-NY?si=BTwBYfP9wSxUN2VBAs always, getting the show started came with its technical setbacks, but we were able to get up and rolling for a fantastic show.

Can Christians and atheists find common ground on the importance of having civil discussions today? That's what Drew (YouTuber: "Genetically Modified Skeptic") and I aim for in this video. Rather than debating questions about the existence of God and the afterlife, as important as these issues are, I ask Drew a ton of questions about his deconversion from Christianity to atheism and how we can have better conversations today across the religious divide.

Drew McCoy is the creator and host of the YouTube channel Genetically Modified Skeptic. His videos cover topics including atheism, cults, satanism, and Biblical scholarship. In this episode we talk about his recent trip to SatanCon in Boston, Massachusetts, and about what the modern satanism movement is all about.

Going through a short video about deconstruction, responding biblically and slight lighthearted mocking of the double standards and hypocrisies.

EPISODE 100!!! We're celebrating this achievement with a different style of show. We're talking all about hymns and music. What does music do to our brains? How can it be used for benevolent or, conversely, malevolent, purposes? Why is music easier to remember than just about any other media we create or consume? We also discuss some history of hymns and folk music in the Mormon culture and tradition as markers for significant events or used to ensure conformity or battle public perceptions. We round out the episode with some parodies of hymns we wrote to help break the spell!   Show Links:  Hymn Parodies by Bryce & Shannon: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1095C1WDVWjOU0I2LVa7bm0Ob-r9e3EORPqJavZd7gd4/edit?usp=sharing    We were on episode #333 of Serious Inquiries Only!: https://seriouspod.com/    Music, Rhythm, and the Brain: https://brainworldmagazine.com/music-rhythm-brain/  The Power of Music: MInd Control, by Rhythmic Sound: https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/guest-blog/the-power-of-music-mind-control-by-rhythmic-sound/  Why Does Music Give You Chills? https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/51745/why-does-music-give-us-chills  How Cult Leaders Use Music for Mind Control: https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/2018/08/206497/cult-music-mind-control-brainwash  Genetically Modified Skeptic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7btz0ocXDeg  Your Brain on Music: A Popular class breaks down how our brain responds to music: https://www.ucf.edu/pegasus/your-brain-on-music/  Your Brain on Music | Alan Harvey | TEDxPerth: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZFFwy5fwYI  What the Latter-Day Saint Hymn ‘Love at Home' has to do with Blackface: https://www.sltrib.com/religion/2022/06/12/what-latter-day-saint/    Bryce's links: Mormon Songs by Levette J.

Drew McCoy is the host of the Genetically Modified Skeptic YouTube channel, which is, with now over 500,000 subscribers, perhaps the largest atheist YouTube channel in the world right now. The last time we collaborated was in 2017, arguing that as well as being false, religion is also mostly harmful. In this podcast we discuss our current views on that subject, and examine how they have changed.

This past week, Vi appeared on Genetically Modified Skeptic's channel to review the series Midnight Mass. Today, they are calling all the righteously indignant to call in and chat about magical healing blood (and other such notions): 585-526-8774 or tiny.cc/callSG.

This caller is feeling conflicted and guilty for attending services as an atheist. Vi and Eric discuss how indoctrination reshapes the brain to want certain things, but how there is no rule about what atheists can and cannot do or feel. If this is what Rachel knows they need, they should feel comfortable exploring it. 18:09 This Catholic caller has feelings about the show Midnight Mass, which Vi reviewed alongside Genetically Modified Skeptic earlier this week. He doesn't think the show accurately depicted Catholic thought or motivation.If you're interested in hearing the full breakdown of Midnight Mass, hop over to Drew's channel here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ-Xt...25:16 In Valentine's Day fashion, Nick calls in to discuss the concept of love from a skeptical point of view. Is there such a thing as “the one”? How about “soulmates”? What do the hosts think? Vi and Eric get vulnerable about how they view love, how that view impacts their relationship, and where the real beauty comes from. Hint: It's not God. 33:46 Why might some people say criticizing the Old Testament is anti-semitic? Vi points out that understanding the history of anti-semitism and deadly prejudice stemming from a misrepresentation of the Hebrew Bible is crucial. Eric emphasizes that you may not be aware you're repeating harmful talking points, and to always make sure you're explicit in your critique of ideas, not people. As good skeptics, we know the best way to find out if your perception of a thing is wrong is to talk to the experts! In this case, a good next step for anyone asking this kind of question would be to talk to Jewish scholars and theologians to discuss what misconceptions about the Hebrew Bible exist in modern Christian thought. If you're interested in learning more about Israel Finkelstein per Eric's suggestion, check out his page here: https://israelfinkelstein.wordpress.com/ 48:52This druid caller communicates with spirits, including the Goddess Freya. Vi and Eric are confused and do their best to get to the bottom of things. What are spirits? How do they talk to us? Can you get to personal enlightenment without spiritual help? 1:12:25Why do the hosts take presup callers? Isn't it just a waste of time? Eric breaks down what makes a good call, while Vi weighs in on whether dishonest tactics are allowed in arguments with dishonest people.

On the 38th episode of All Heart with Paul Cardall, former atheist and cold case expert Jay Warner Wallace shares his experience as a homicide detective investigating the evidence for Jesus of Nazareth outside of the Bible and inside the text of the Bible. Jim, a popular Christian who uses forensic apologetics believes there are many different versions of the victim (Jesus). He explains how he was able to use his expertise to unveil the true Jesus reported in the Bible and historians. Using a term he coined as "cold case christianity" Jim discusses how to get results long after witnesses are gone. Having a large Mormon family, Jim began investigating Mormonism as part of his journey from being an atheist to a believing Christian who would later have a christian worldview. Using his experience he discovered Mormon founder Joseph Smith was not a prophet and The Book of Mormon does not meet the forensic test of truth. All Heart host Paul, a former Mormon, also with a Christian worldview shares his personal insight into learning the differences in the doctrine of grace. Jay reveals why the doctrine of grace is important in knowing the victim that was crucified and said to come back to life. Jesus spent 40 days with disciples teaching them the doctrine they needed to know to establish the Lord's church.  GUEST: J. Warner Wallace, Homicide Detective, Christian Apologist HOST: Paul Cardall, Dove Award Winning Musician / Producer  J. WARNER WALLACE J. Warner Wallace is a Dateline featured cold-case homicide detective, popular national speaker and best-selling author. He continues to consult on cold-case investigations while serving as a Senior Fellow at the Colson Center for Christian Worldview. He is also an adjunct professor of apologetics at Talbot School of Theology (Biola University) and Southern Evangelical Seminary, and a faculty member at Summit Ministries. J. Warner became a Christ-follower at the age of thirty-five after investigating the claims of the New Testament gospels using his skill set as a detective. He eventually earned a Master's Degree in Theological Studies from Gateway Seminary. J. Warner's professional investigative work has received national recognition; his cases have been featured more than any other detective on NBC's Dateline, and his work has also appeared on CourtTV and Fox News. J. Warner's book, Cold-Case Christianity, provides readers with ten principles of cold case investigations and utilizes these principles to examine the reliability of the gospel eyewitness accounts. In God's Crime Scene, he investigates eight pieces of evidence in the universe to make the case for God's existence. WEBSITE: https://coldcasechristianity.com/ FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/j.warnerwallace INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/jwarnerwallace/ TWITTER: https://twitter.com/jwarnerwallace YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVFe7xhG6rl0ruoMQCJDtnw  ABOUT PAUL CARDALL Steinway & Sons considers Paul Cardall one of today's most prolific pianists. Born with half a heart, the Dove Award Winning artist has endured a lifetime of complex surgeries that culminated in a heart transplant in his 30s. As a teenager, Paul discovered he had a gift of composing for piano without any formal training. “Playing the piano healed my heart and it's been my life's work to use music to heal other hearts,” the pianist told Forbes Magazine. With more than 3 billion lifetime streams and 11 No. 1 Billboard chart debuts, the pianist and entrepreneur recently founded All Heart Publishing, an independent record label patterned after Stone Angel Music, another company he founded in 1999. The Stone Angel catalog and artist roster, both sold to Anthem Entertainment in 2018. Cardall's holiday album, Christmas, was awarded the Gospel Music Association's prestigious Dove Award for Instrumental Album of the Year. Over the years, Cardall has collaborated with many prestigious performers including Grammy winning artist CeCe Winans, Thompson Square, Tyler Glenn (Neon Tees), David Archuleta, Ty Herndon, Kristen Chenowith, and Rachael Yamagata. He recently founded All Heart Publishing, an independent record. Forbes Magazine reported the pianist as saying, "Music has helped healed my heart and it's my life mission to use music to heal your heart." He is the host of the popular podcast, “All Heart with Paul Cardall” and lives in Nashville, TN. WEBSITE: http://www.paulcardall.com FACEBOOK: http://www.facebook.com/paulcardall TWITTER: http://www.twitter.com/paulcardall INSTAGRAM: http://www.instagram.com/paulcardall

What benefit is it to talk with apologists in this way? This caller wants to know why Vi and Eric seem to opt for these more esoteric topics when some claims can be refuted by science or history. Vi says it's important to speak about what you know and be ready with referrals should your conversation partner need more information. Eric suggests philosophical conversations may be able to better get to the heart of whether a person is being dishonest or not. 19:45Do essential oils cure migraines, make your bunions fall off, and realign your root chakra? Or do they just smell kind of good? Bree wants to know, and Vi and Eric have LOTS of thoughts about the reason quack medical science and predatory MLMs are so popular in the U.S. For more information on why essential oil companies are suspicious, check out Genetically Modified Skeptic's video on his own experience: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TsDrIAsVgTQ If you want more anti-MLM content, check out The Antibot: https://youtu.be/581WyV9BQD0 30:19 Why define consciousness as anything other than “awareness”? This caller watched the hosts' VS video and his opinions quickly set off Vi and Eric's ongoing argument about the subject. Things get a bit heated, and Vi ultimately declares that consciousness isn't even a falsifiable concept and therefore not worth talking about. If you missed the new call-in debate livestream show hosted by Eric and Vi, check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_IM4msSw--c&t=26s 43:42Vi is excited about this one. This caller raises an often overlooked refutation of first cause arguments like the Kalam: the problem of the A vs B theory of time. In fact, our current scientific understanding of physics implies that William Lane Craig's signature argument may be in deep trouble! Meanwhile, Eric realizes the present might not actually exist and is shaken. To get a better idea of what Vi and the caller are talking about, watch this video from Paulogia: https://youtu.be/GC3o4GnKJFU 55:45Eric threw shade at cannabis oils earlier in the show, and this caller has some things to add. The lesson of this story is: be specific about your claims, because chances are we'll agree with you! 1:03:15Why does everyone feel like the main character in their own story? Is it possible one of the damages of religion is that it makes its followers into NPCs, in service to the “actual” main character, God? Are there cultures where individuals don't see themselves as the main character? Wolfos brings an interesting psychological term to the hosts, and triggers a bit of a nostalgia crisis for Vi. Upon further investigation, it looks like the correct term for this may be “main character syndrome,” a social media-based term that developed on TikTok. While it doesn't have much basis in science, it's an interesting social trend to observe.

*This is audio extracted from my YouTube video from June 2021 converted here in podcast land for your listening pleasure.*..Is there a better way to talk to and treat those you disagree with? Does loving others with who we vastly disagree mean we have to sacrifice our theology (and humanity) to do it? Where do we draw the line? Does the topic of Calvinism, atheism, politics, LGBTQ+, or other contentious topics deeply anger you to the point of being aggressive and reactively lashing out about it? How can we act more Christlike instead of looking like angry politicians in disagreement? I asked Dr. Sean McDowell on to talk about how we can accomplish this as well as asking his advice on how we can have real Biblical unity without compromising.Sean's YouTube channel:https://www.youtube.com/c/SeanMcDowell-infoSean's books:https://seanmcdowell.org/booksSean's website:https://seanmcdowell.org/Sean's Interviews/videos with Drew, the Genetically Modified Skeptic:1- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJX28l54YxE&t=0s2- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_-L4i5gL1kMy Website:https://www.melissadougherty.co/My Social Media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewAgeToChristianity/Instagram: @melissaldougherty

The long-anticipated Genesis Paradise Lost movie from Eric Hovind's Creation Today is finally available on home video and around the world. The movie proudly declares a message of young earth creationism, using stunning visual effects and interviews with the likes of Bodie Hodge, Chad Hovind, Charles Jackson, Danny Faulkner, David Menton, Georgia Purdom, Jeremy Lyon, John Baumgardner, Ken Ham, Ray Comfort, Terry Mortenson, Tommy Mitchell, and Voddie Baucham.As the movie is packed with scientific claims, but not enough screen time to go in-depth, this series will endeavor to go slowly through each claim and take a careful look at each and how it contributes to our view of God.Part eight looks at approximately 59 minute to 62 minute mark of the movie.Thanks to Lois Edwards, RJ Downard, Jackson Wheat, Trevor Valle, and narrator Tony Reed.Genetically Modified Skeptichttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCG1uayRlzz3ahT8ISRdyw7QScience of Genesis Paradise Lost playlisthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2W4g9BYYimU&list=PLpdBEstCHhmXRs5GQqgHHPh53S3vRddOdGenesis Paradise Lost channelhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UC86LFsm_pQuL4D0P0zkQgngFollow me athttp://www.patreon.com/paulogiahttp://www.twitter.com/paulogia0http://www.facebook.com/paulogia0https://teespring.com/stores/paulogiahttps://discord.gg/BXbv7DSSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/paulogia)

One group looks for purpose of things happening, while the other looks for the reason things happen. Eric fanboys about Bill Watterson, and Vi agrees we should keep this distinction in mind when talking to theists. Link to the comic discussed: https://www.gocomics.com/calvinandhobbes/1988/04/01#:~:text=Transcript%3A,Hobbes%3A%20Because%20we%20walked%20here.&text=Hobbes%3A%20Because%20Earth%20can%20support%20life. 15:00Bree calls in with a joke call, making an anti-abortion argument from an atheistic perspective. The laughs, however, lead to some interesting conversation as the hosts contemplate where current abortion arguments fall short, and whether many skeptics have yet to fully deconstruct ideas around procreation and birth. Cue foreshadowing music…. 22:44 This caller is a theist who wants to argue with the hosts about whether or not terminating a pregnancy is moral or immoral. The hosts get creative with their analogies in an attempt to get their points across: Eric asks if unplugging a sentient computer would be immoral, and Vi makes a comparison between abortion laws and “stand your ground” laws in Texas and other states. Ultimately, the question is: what course of action is permissible to maintain bodily autonomy? And who gets to decide whether that course of action is moral or immoral? 40:33 Fred was part of a cult composed mostly of atheists, but managed to escape thanks to watching shows like Skeptic Generation, @Genetically Modified Skeptic, and @Telltale. They want to talk about how atheists can also fall for behavioral control methods used to perpetuate cults. The takeaway here: don't think you're too smart to get involved in a cult, and stay away from organizations with strict hierarchical structures. Stay safe out there! 51:00 Are atheists better or worse when it comes to inclusion and diversity? In some areas they are objectively progressing faster than many religious counterparts, but in other areas they're falling behind. Sam points to their experience in atheist circles as someone who is neurodivergent, nonbinary, and Pagan, among other intersectionalities. Vi and Eric weigh in.1:02:08 What “religious tools” should atheists be using to help them in their lives? Are there such things as “religious tools”? What is a non-theistic Satanist, and why does Candor call himself one? This conversation gets into tarot, ritual, and mindfulness as secular methods for coping and thriving in the world. You may have feelings about this one… 1:11:03 Karen is sick and tired of atheist pro-choice arguments, because they don't feel honest. She lays out her uncomfortable truth: we rate beings based on how valuable they are, and give out rights from there. Eric points out the difference between rights and protections, and Vi gets excited at the icky feeling the argument causes. Gotta love a chewy new moral dilemma! 1:20:30How is the media influencing our risk assessments about things like COVID, and could it be that those who have chosen not to get the vaccine are simply less risk-averse? Eric and Vi point out that while each individual has to choose for themselves, the responsibility of caring for those in your community and providing the at-risk with protection outweighs personal comfort. _____________Skeptic Generation is LIVE every Sunday at 11:30am-1:00pm CTCall on your phone: 585-LA-MURPH (585-526-8774) Call online: https://tiny.cc/callSG Love the show?

Is Craig wrong on the meaning of life? Maybe.Recently, I came across a video made by the Genetically Modified Skeptic responding to an article written by William Lane Craig. I found this interesting and wanted to give some commentary on existentialism and also give a few responses to GMS. Of course, as I have said previously on this channel and in my discussions with Zac, I don't completely agree with all of Craig's statements on God and meaning. However, I also find that there are some errors in Drew's video and I aim to cover them here.-------------------------To check out more about my content feel free to go to my YouTube Channel Apologetics for All to access clips and extra discussions

I believe that Genetically Modified Skeptic presents this material because he wants the best for individuals struggling with sexual frustrations of various kinds that he sees as springing from Christian attitudes about sex outside of marriage. His motivations, I think, are honest and caring. However, his video, in my opinion is one-sided. It presents possible dangers related to Christian views about the topic, to the exclusion of possible dangers related to secular views. It also overly simplifies the question of sex as a "need." Further, viewers may not understand why I suggest that much of what Drew says presumes the falsity of Christianity. If Christianity is true, then as one of my patrons put it, "If extreme unwavering self-hatred is occurring after a sexual failure and repentance, what needs to change is one's beliefs about God's forgiveness, mercy, patience, and the height and depth of his love, not one's belief about whether certain types of sexual behavior are right or wrong." If Christianity is true, spiritual healthiness is an extremely important part of the human experience. God knows far more about what is physically, psychologically, and spiritually healthy than anyone.

This is our inaugural episode, and we are so excited to be here! We had a bunch of tech issues which meant we could only run for an hour, but we got to hear from some amazing people including Genetically Modified Skeptic, Holy Koolaid, and a bunch of people who share a birthday with SG! We also got a return call from Brenda, who is still very wrong about philosophy and also desperately condescending. Oh well. Special thanks to our amazing crew that helped behind the scenes, and to you, our viewers, who stuck with us and are getting a front-row seat for this new baby show's first steps! We love and appreciate you all. See you next week :)

According to Eric Hovind's guest, in Biblical times, essential oils were used for everything from holy ceremonies to everyday needs. And today, if you're willing to pay quite a bit of money to Eric Hovind, you too can harness the all-natural power of essential oils to calm, purify, and heal our bodies and homes.But is Eric merely twisting the Bible to push his new products from the controversial organization called Young Living. Just because the Bible speaks of many different oils being used for everything from the crowning of a king to the healing of the body, does that mean that essential oils are an intersection of science and scripture?Join Drew from @Genetically Modified Skeptic and I as we watch Megan Trombly and Eric Hovind share their interpretations of the Oils of the Bible.Essential Oils: God’s Gift to Mankind On Demand Webinarhttps://creationtoday.org/product/essential-oils-gods-gift-to-mankind-webinar/Genetically Modified Skeptichttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCG1uayRlzz3ahT8ISRdyw7QThanks to Shannon Qhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0qhPJh8DeoR-3JhMrIvw0gJoin this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIS4cWaXgWpznjwovFYQBJQ/joinSupport Paulogia athttp://www.patreon.com/paulogiahttp://www.paypal.me/paulogiahttps://www.amazon.ca/hz/wishlist/ls/YTALNY19IBC8?ref_=wl_sharehttps://teespring.com/stores/paulogiaPaulogia Audio-Only-Version Podcasthttps://paulogia.buzzsprout.comFollow Paulogia athttp://www.twitter.com/paulogia0http://www.facebook.com/paulogia0https://discord.gg/BXbv7DSSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/paulogia)

Two of YouTube's most recognizable atheists teamed up to explain why Christians suggest that atheists are just sinners and liars who know God exists.

Hello all you atheists (and theists) out there! The hosts of today’s Atheist Experience are Matt Dillahunty and Dr. Hector Garcia! Hector is an author, podcaster, and youtuber. Heh has been spending his Covid time making a new YouTube channel, shout out to Genetically Modified Skeptic.Our first caller, Jonathan in the UK wants to know how to help his believer wife without challenging her beliefs. Tough request Jonathan. Is the belief of a punishing god damaging to begin with? Be honest, come at with concern and let her know this is you and you are not taking away her beliefs. Reach out to Recovering From Religion. Shawna in NY asks what to say to people that say consciousness is proof of god. There needs to be more to the argument, a statement is not enough to conclude a god exists. The brain is malleable, it can be altered and fundamentally change the person affected.Dean in CA argues that wellbeing is not robust enough to base morality on. Dean argues coronavirus harms our wellbeing. We agree but there are forms of wellbeing, like societal wellbeing. In discussions of coronavirus we are always talking about wellbeing, not personal preference. Brian in CA asks about Pascal’s Mugging, a thought experiment on probability of return on investment and risk versus reward. We would want more evidence to believe someone would return any money given. Way too many factors to consider. Rick in MI thinks Matt is wrong that slavery is in the bible. Rick agrees with Matt that slavery is outlined in the bible but its immoral to own people. Matt points out the bible advocates for something we agree is immoral. Ron in FL asks how to combat the argument that his brother needs to power through mental health problems. You can research barriers to mental health and help direct him. It’s not a failing on his part and one can’t necessarily pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Mark in NM asks if atheism creates a contentious point for people arguing new theological ideas. Atheism is merely a response to a claim. We are unsure of what you are asking. Nathan in LA feels people are agnostic because we don’t know where people came from and feels there has to be a force controlling evolution. Look at the trees… Abiogenesis deals with where life came from, not evolution. No creator required.Michael in AZ thinks god is a paradox. A paradox implies that something doesn’t exist, a god can’t both exist and not. Last caller, Vernaz in the UK asks why does god have to be connected to religion and feels god has nothing to do with religion. Some religions don't have a god belief. Email tv@atheist-community.org, we would love to hear more. Thanks for tuning in, we are so glad you joined us today. You can find more from Hector at www.hector-garcia.com. Stay safe and continue wearing masks out there.

Responding to an entire channel in one podcast is a new one for me! I've been told by multiple people that this atheist youtuber is the guy to dissect. In this episode I consider everything Genetically Modified Skeptic says in his "Atheism" playlist!

In a twist on Pascal's Wager, Genetically Modified Skeptic lists what he thinks one stands to lose if they become religious. Johnathan Pritchett and I stroll through that list to find out whether we've wagered poorly!

My guest is the science advocate generally known as The Genetically Modified Skeptic.  In this hard-hitting (and likely controversial) discussion he discusses magical thinking in the martial arts, essential oils, alternative medicine, cult leaders, Jordan Peterson, religion, the anti-vaccine movement, fake cancer cures and much more.  I hope you find it interesting and though provoking.

Today we are talking with Drew from the Genetically Modified Skeptic Channel on how he became an atheist. He takes through his journey from being a fundamental Christian to a genetically modified skeptic. Drew started out as a fundamentalist Christian. He believed in the 6000-year-old earth and Evolution was a lie. Then he started an Astronomy Class where he was exposed to facts about the universe that he hadn't of considered. How long it takes light to reach Earth from distant stars changed him from a young earth creationist to an old earth creationist almost instantly. As he studied and learned more, he eventually found himself at a crossroads in his faith. I'm glad that stars and starlight flipped his switch a few years ago and got him to start thinking.
