I grabbed a copy of this book because I have read other books by the
author and had high expectations for it. Quite frankly, it was not his
best work. I am NOT saying that the book is unworthy of reading;
however, it just did not meet the standards that I expected of him.
The
format is set up in a question and answer method where the author tries
to infuse humor into the material. He does take on some weighty
matters -- existence of God, the presence of suffering, heaven/hell,
angels/demons, purported hatred of homosexuals, etc. The work is
accessible by those of deep theological understanding or those that have
little knowledge of religion. My concern is the philosophical approach
rather than a Biblical one. It is rare to see mention of the Bible as a
basis for the truth upon which he is expounding, and I see that as a
major missed opportunity.
Its okay as a read and a resource. I would use to build my specific, theological position on a matter.
