Believing In God … or Not w/ Ed and Dan

Ed is a Christian  apologist, meaning he gives a defense for why it’s reasonable to believe in God.  Dan use to be a Christian, but all of that has fallen away for him.  They both give a summary of how they got to where they are now.  Then there’s a bit of debate about if it’s reasonable to believe in God.
