I think Russell is sincere, but fame can be spiritually toxic to anyone, new converts in particular. I’ve been a Christian for a long time and seen plenty of celebrity converts go sideways. People always say “oh he wasn’t sincere!” But the truth is that putting new Christians into a leadership role is really damaging to their faith.
