“I'm half through this book and I just started reading last night. Ehrman is a master story teller and while analysis is not anything new, he helps to remind us of how religious ideas and views about suffering and punishment are seriously backwards and even dangerous for our modern times. Believers and non-believers should read this book.”

“This is a must-read book for our times. It puts in perspective in just a short amount of pages the Bush regime and what they have done and are doing to this country. Whether you accept her analysis or not, you can not say that she's all wrong. Every intelligent person in America should read and absorb this book.”

“I can't wait to get my head in this book. I saw the brotha speak on a couple of problems and I was seriously educated. There's an entire universe out there for us to learn about, and he's one expert to teach us about it.”

“I saw the movie years ago, and it really opened my eyes to what this society could become. I've always meant to read the book as well, for I know it's even more insightful than the movie.”

“I heard the author of this book interviewd on the Reginal Findely Infidel Guy Show. First off, this book is not an easy read, though it's clearly written. But if you're lacking in scientic literacy (e.g. theory of relativity, quantum mechanics), you'll struggle with the evidence that author uses to explain why God does not exist.

But if you have read the latest works by Sam Harris, Daniel Dennet, and Richard Dawkins (all of whom endorse this book), Stenger's book is a really good challenging read.

Stenger uses philosophical points to argue the non-existence of God, even more he takes time to put the Judeo-Christian-Islamic God under scienific scrutinity. He does this even better than Dennet or Dawkins.

His book reminds me of just how necessary it will be for people to be more scientifically literate in order to abandon tradional believes in God and religious mysticism.”

“Thousands and thousands of paperback copies of this book should be literally passed out all over America, leading an unending public and national debate about the problems with religion. Anyone who reads this slim book will be challenged to rethink what they've been told about religion in general and Christianity in particular. ”

“I haven't read or intend to read the popular "Purpose Driven Life," by Paster Rick Warren, but I am interested in reading what the author of this book has to say in response to Warren's best selling book”
