We’re not sure precisely what happened, but a conversion was not the end result.
It started after British actor, writer and devout atheist Stephen Fry took to Twitter to offer praise for fellow atheist Richard Dawkins:

Naturally Fry heard from some religious people, but decided to put an end to the discussion:

Later Fry saw this question:
Why do people like @stephenfry get so arsily defensive when they dismiss the theological sciences? It is tiresome in the extreme.

Which prompted Fry to close out with more mega blanket insults:
