Matt Dillahunty has been a key figure in many people’s deconversion—including mine. His debates are sharp, logical, and often brutal in exposing religious flaws. But does his confrontational approach actually help atheism grow? Many atheists look at the few people who deconvert after experiencing hostility and assume this proves that aggression works. But what about the countless people who are pushed further into their beliefs because of it? This episode isn’t about tearing down Dillahunty’s contributions—it’s about expanding the conversation. Atheism isn’t just for those who already agree with us. If we want to engage with a broader audience, we need to rethink how we present ourselves. Listen in as I break down the impact of confrontational atheism and ask whether we can do better.
