As arguments go this one is seriously lacking in rationality.
As
@Tinker Grey pointed, out conversion for political expediency is hardly admirable even if you believe Christianity has some magic property capable of saving the world.
Putting that aside, the author appears to be unaware that you can't
make yourself believe in something. You either believe or you don't or you sit on the fence, but you can't consciously manufacture belief.
Finally the question - "
Atheism failed to answer a simple question: what is the meaning and purpose of life?"
The author appears to be unaware that the problem here doesn't lie in the answer - it's in the question. Asking for the '
meaning of life' automatically infers that there is a meaning to life which in turn assumes a giver of meaning. The question is not a question - it's a statement of belief.
