Those who practice what is called "Street Epistemology" say that it is a conversational tool that can be used to talk about a person's deeply-held belief. The interviewer tries to find out if the method that the interviewee used to arrive at his belief is a reliable method. Many atheists try to use this technique to try to get theists to doubt the existence of God.
Here are some sample videos of Street Epistemology:

If a Street Epistemologist were to interview you about the method you used to arrive at the conclusion that the Christian God exists, how would you respond to that? If you say what your method is, then you would be asked, "How do you know that your method is reliable?" or "If someone else used that method, would he arrive at the same conclusion?"
