5.0 out of 5 stars atheistic, Jan 6 2003

Z - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Book Your Church Doesn't Want You To Read (Paperback)

I love the way fundamentalist Christians go on and on about how flawed and illogical this book is, without stating any proof that it is such.

I also think it's hilarious that they assume that anything that disagrees with THEIR brand of religion is atheistic...it is not. In fact, it could be argued that the most intellectual stance is agnosticism...because we ultimately CANNOT know. Theism or Atheism takes a stance on something that can't be proven either way.

However, I'm neither an atheist nor an agnostic...I'm a Pagan...I wonder what the Christians who think this is atheistic propaganda would say to that?

Zoe =)

4.0 out of 5 stars Think About It, July 14 2002

TheHighlander (Richfield, PA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Book Your Church Doesn't Want You To Read (Paperback)

This is a book that must be read with an open mind. Those with hard-core beliefs will not like this book. They will not give it the proper thought. The book focuses on Christianity, probably because it is the most popular religion today, and only touches on most other religions. That is the reason I could not bring myself to award a five star review. But the author's points are worth considering for an open minded person.

The book reviews letters and speeches by some of the founding fathers including Thomas Jefferson and Thomas Paine. it touches on the native American with a review of the words of Chief Seattle. Talks on the Dead Sea Scrolls, The Essenes and Mithra releigons. It follows the history of the English Bible and the changes, reprints and revisions that have befell it. The history of many of the stories in the Bible, how they existed before Christianity, the parallels in beliefs of Christianity and other religions that existed prior to it. The customs around The Last Supper as well as the contradictions between the four gospels.

A good read for those interested in the true origins of religion and what man believed before the religions of today. This book should be read as one of many on the subject but no thorough research on the subject should leave this book out. Read it with an open mind and think on it.
