The Role of Evidence in Conversations with Unbelievers

Not all objections raised by non-believers stem from a deficiency of evidence regarding Christianity. Often, these objections are influenced by cultural, social, or political issues that create a divide between Christians and non-Christians. For instance, many atheists express frustration not just over theological concerns, but also due to their perception that Christians are blocking societal changes they advocate for, such as same-sex marriage or environmental policies. Understanding these motivations can help Christians engage more effectively, as bridging political concerns might reveal common ground and facilitate more productive dialogues.
