    My wife was pissed that some young teenage girls came to our door soliciting souls, and I just said it was fortunate I didn’t answer the door. I would have sat on the front porch and discussed things with them, and their parents probably would have been pissed at the atheist putting doubts in their children’s heads.

    Those discussions are a two-way street, and some teenager that has never encountered a truly alternative viewpoint (since they were either home-schooled or in a cult school) don’t really have the advantage over a 40-year-old atheist who grew up Christian.
