“Dilbert” comic creator and beloved conservative commentator Scott Adams announced that he will be converting to Christianity during his final days of battling a terminal cancer diagnosis.
Adams, 68, announced back in May that he was battling an advanced form of prostate cancer. The announcement came after former President Joe Biden disclosed that he too was battling a cancer with a Gleason Score of 9 that had metastasized.
“Some of you may have already guessed, and this won’t surprise you at all, but I have the same cancer that Joe Biden has,” Adams said on his Rumble channel at the time. “I also have prostate cancer that has also spread to my bones.”
The popular commentator solemnly revealed that he would likely not live through the summer, though he was able to do so after receiving some experimental treatments, which he credited the Trump Administration with helping him to obtain. His condition has worsened in recent weeks, however, as Adams recently revealed that he is now paralyzed from the waist down due to a spinal tumor.
On New Year’s Day, Adams once again shared a grim update on his condition after an appointment with his radiologist. “I talked to my radiologist yesterday and it’s all bad news. The odds of me recovering are essentially zero. I’ll give you any updates if that changes, but it won’t,” he said.
“There’s no chance that I’ll get my feeling back in my legs and I’ve got some ongoing heart failure, which is making it difficult to breathe sometimes during the day, especially if I have a coughing fit. At the moment I can breathe and I’m not in any pain. Things are changing fast,” he added. “January will probably be a month of transition one way or the other.”
Despite the bleak outlook, Adams has continued to interact with fans and has continued streams of his show from his hospital bed. During one stream on Saturday, he revealed that a number of his Christian friends have implored him to convert as he battles his illness.
“I’ve not been a believer, but I also have respect for any Christian who goes out of their way to try to convert me. Because how would I believe you believe your own religion if you’re not trying to convert me? So I have great respect for people who care enough that they want me to convert and then go out of their way to try to convince me,” he said.
“So you’re going to hear for the first time today that it is my plan to convert. So I still have time, but my understanding is you’re never too late. And on top of that, Any skepticism I have about reality would certainly be instantly answered if I wake up in heaven. I do believe that the dominant Christian theory is that I would wake up in heaven if I have a good life. I don’t necessarily have to state something in advance. And so, to my Christian friends, yes, it’s coming.”
