Atheists might be open to belief in a God if presented with compelling evidence or experiences that can’t be explained by natural phenomena—aspects of reality that fundamentally challenge their current understanding of the universe. This could include personal experiences that feel divine, scientific discoveries that align with spiritual principles, or philosophical arguments that provide satisfactory answers to deep existential questions.
