The Year of Living Biblically: One Man's Humble Quest to Follow the Bible as Literally as Possible

by A. J. Jacobs

I thought the idea was great, but the book was sort of boring. Also seeing into the lives of some of the people he met depressed me— since this gave me another glimpse at how many crazy religious fundamentalists there are in the world.

A question I have about "Mere Christianity"

nobody@allconsuming.net (gladglide) — Fri, 28 Sep 2007 01:23:43 GMT

Mere Christianity

by C. S. Lewis

Is this really the pinnacle of Christian thought!? I’ve been looking forward to reading this book ever since my teenage days when I was an evangelical Christian. He jumped to bad conclusions way to quickly. Very disappointing. I feel like I’ve been punched in the stomach!

Please someone suggest a better Christianity book for me to read.

Middlesex

by Jeffrey Eugenides

I tried reading this one for 3 days. I just couldn’t go on. I just didn’t like the author’s style of writing. With so many good reviews, it’s probably a good story… but, I just couldn’t finish it.

Why I recommend "The Modern Scholar: Global Warming, Global Threat (Unabridged)"

The Modern Scholar: Global Warming, Global Threat (Unabridged)

by Michael B. McElroy

This really helped my understanding of the global warming facts vs fiction. For example… why the United States was right to reject the Kyoto Protocol when it did (but should approve a revised version).
