No ignorance

(cont'd from yesterday's post)

Sean McDowell thinks that sheltering his Christian students from opposing views would be a big mistake. So he doesn't do that.

Here's what his students do for his classes:
  • read articles by skeptics
  • watch videos that challenge their beliefs
  • read The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins
  • go to Berkeley campus for atheist lectures
"If we want young people to have a vibrant and lasting faith, we must expose them to opposing viewpoints early in their intellectual development. And we must present those views fairly and accurately."

Sean says, "Don't you think you should have some good reasons why this [Christianity] is true?"
