  I couldn't put it down. I'm not totally in agreement with everything, esp the way somethings are written. However, I think it's very interesting. Really, God is the issue. There is no point to debating what's right and wrong. Without a belief in absolute truth, it's pointless.
  I really like a lot of what this book talks about. I think it's a great read, esp for my conservative friends.
