JAD's questions are very good ones. I had a spiritual awakening like Dr. Collins, and was a member of a christian denomination at the time, but it wan't long before those questions arose for me.
I never could believe Christianity was "the one true faith." That left too much of existence outside of god's grace, for no good reason. I came to view christianity as the window through which I viewed the transcendent, and saw that I was at that particular window because of my cultural and national heritage and for no other reason.
It did not take long for me to decide that I could not really call my self a christian with that belief set.
I wonder if Dr. Collins asks himself those questions. And I wonder how he answers them.
