Dillahunty is a proponent of debates, both formal and informal, as a very effective way of conveying information. “I am absolutely convinced from my experience and the evidence that I’ve gathered over the years of doing this that they are incredibly valuable.” He has spoken at atheist and freethought conferences around the country and debated numerous Christian apologists, including Ray Comfort (on The Atheist Experience), and David Robertson on Premier Christian Radio’s Unbelievable. At the 2014 American Atheists convention in Salt Lake City, he gave a workshop that outlined some key ideas in effective debating: “Take the opponent seriously: ‘The audience has to sense that I can perfectly understand their views, and have rejected them.’ Use logic: ‘I tell them that I can write a better book than the Bible. Simple: I copy it word for word, except the parts about slavery.’ And don’t forget emotion: ‘It is theater. That is my advantage with a Baptist background over someone like Richard Dawkins, although he knows more about science.'” He has also stated that he is willing to say “I don’t know” in a debate, a “scary concept” to some of his audience. Alongside fellow activists Seth Andrews and Aron Ra, he traveled to Australia in March 2015 as a member of the Unholy Trinity Tour. In April 2015 he was an invited speaker at the Merseyside Skeptics Society QEDCon in Manchester, United Kingdom. In 2018, Dillahunty participated in a discussion with Canadian psychology professor Jordan Peterson for Pangburn Philosophy in which they encountered areas of disagreement about religion, specifically its relationship with values and culture. The debate was uploaded to Pangburn Philosophy’s YouTube channel.
