Cartoonist and political commentator Scott Adams is currently fighting cancer. This reality was revealed to us by the famed Dilbert author last year and he is now in the final days of his battle.
As things are drawing to a close, Adams is focusing on the important things, the eternal. And with that, he plans to convert to Christianity.
Watch (or read below):
So I have great respect for people who care enough that they want me to convert and go out of their way to try and convince me. So, you're going to hear for the first time today that it is my plan to convert.
So, I still have time. My understanding is you're never too late. And on top of that, I think any skepticism I have about reality would certainly be instantly answered if I wake up in heaven.
I do believe that the dominant Christian theory is that I would wake up in heaven if I have a good life ... and so, to my Christian friends, yes, it is coming. You don't have to talk me into it. I am now convinced that the risk/reward is completely smart. If it turns out that there's nothing there, I've lost nothing. But I've respected your wishes ... if it turns out there is something there and the Christian model is the closest to it, I win.
So, with your permission, I promise you that I will convert ... Argument made, argument accepted.
Even in his conversion, Adams cannot turn off his analytical mind for even a moment. It's all about the odds, likelihoods, "living a good life" and earning heaven, and the relationships he has on earth.
Others had thoughts on Scott's conversion.
Adams responded to those who have concern for his soul:
Adams is playing a risky game, no man knows for sure when his time will come, but the genuineness of his faith is between him and God, and all we can do is pray that he truly puts his trust in Jesus before the end.
