Hey, friends, welcome back to another episode of Theology and Arama.

My guest today is Dr. Larry Sanger, who is the co-founder of Wikipedia.

Larry received his PhD in Philosophy from the Ohio State University, and for many years was an intellectual skeptic of Christianity.

But earlier this year in February 2025, he wrote an essay titled How a Skeptical Philosopher Becomes a Christian.

That's right. Larry had a conversion to Christianity. Actually happened a few years ago in 2020.

But as you'll see, he wanted to take a few years to really work out some of the details of his faith and respond to various, you know, respond to the

questions that he had for so many years about Christianity. So I want to have Dr. Sanger come on and

talk to us both about his role in Wikipedia and then talk extensively about his faith, very,

very interesting faith journey. So please welcome to the show for the first time, the one and only,

Dr. Larry Singer.

All right, Dr. Larry Singer. How are you this morning?

Great. Thanks so much for being on Theology and Raw. You know, a friend of mine read your

viral article about how a skeptic became a Christian a few months ago. And he says, hey, you

should have this guy on your podcast. I'm like, that's Larry Sager. I can't get people like that

on the podcast. But he says, well, you should reach out anyway. So I reached out and you very

delightfully responded saying, sure, I'd love to come on.

So I've been looking forward to this interview for a while.

Can we start with the whole Wikipedia thing?

I mean, you were the founder or co-founder of Wikipedia.

Can you take us back to that time?

Like, how did that happen?

How did that come about?
