He quickly launched the “An Athiest Reads” series, in which he uses his English major knowledge to “critically examine” Christian apologists. He does this by reading religious literature (primarily by Christian apologists), and while doing so, he clarifies, expands, and provides his viewpoint on what he has just read from an atheist perspective.
