The Patrick Madrid Show: April 04, 2024 - Hour 1

As an avowed atheist celebrated in secular circles, Dawkins' newfound appreciation for the aesthetics and ethical framework of Christianity comes as quite the surprise. Patrick unpacks his statements, considers the implications for interfaith dialogue, and reflects on the potential personal journey that even a staunch atheist like Dawkins might be on towards faith.
