One thought on “The Book Your Church Doesn't Want You to Read Book II: or Synagogue, Temple, Mosque”

1. Makes so very clear the Mythology of Christianity in easy to understand languageThe Book your Church Doesn t Want You to Read so easily shows how all religions evolved from paganism, mythology, superstition,and man s fear of death.After allowing my self delusion to cause my profession of faith for decades,I could no longer make excuses to attempt to justify continued belief in the god that Christianity espouses who in no way jives with the facts of everyday existence on this planet It just becam [...]

2. I really enjoyed the eclectic nature of this book its essays touched on so many different topics it did not go super in depth into many of them, but provided an overview of such issues as female genital mutilation, sex abuse in churches, bible contradictions, and the religious right The organization of the book was a little haphazard, but this was a very interesting and enlightening read.

3. Loved, loved, loved this book Being an atheist in a prodominantly Christian country can feel a little isolating sometimes This book helps break down other religious dogma with facts It s very interesting if you are interested in religious study Don t read this if you are easily offended.

4. This book is not as great as I hoped It does provide useful information and references about biblical errors, and about the ignorance and brutality of fundamentalist religions However, it is not a very dynamic read.

5. Non so se la mia chiesa non mi farebbe mai leggere questo libro Io comunque l ho letto, perch sono sempre stato allergico ai libri proibiti per mi chiedo se davvero un approccio di questo tipo pu far spostare il credo di alcune persone Innanzitutto, nonostante questa seconda edizione sia stata ampliata includendo tutte le religioni pi importanti in realt si parla per almeno i tre quarti del libro di cattolicesimo e fondamentalismo cristiano USA il libro chiaramente pensato per l americano medio [...]

6. Un libro che raggruppa diversi saggi, articoli e parti di altri testi, tutti incentrati nel tentativo di screditare le grandi religioni monoteiste, con particolare attenzione a quella Cristiana Da persona agnostica, ma molto interessata all aspetto storico ed antropologico delle religioni mi hanno profondamente urtato la mancanza di scientificit che invece ci si aspetterebbe da un testo del genere, la tendenza ad usare un tono troppo declamatorio e soprattutto le troppe imprecisioni se non addir [...]

7. Wish all my friends would read this book with an open mind The chapters in the book are all writings by different authors, many going back 200 years Thomas Jefferson s letter to his nephew was very interesting.I most enjoyed learning about Zoroastrianism and Mitraism and much of what is in modern day faiths came from these two belief systems.

9. Raramente decido di sconsigliare la lettura di un libro In effetti questa la prima volta che lo faccio e a ragion veduta Avrei potuto investire meglio i dodici euri e novanta, solo se lo avessi saputo.Consiglio sempre di leggere tutti i libri, convinto come sono che ogni libro un uomo Ma gli autori di questo libro, che sembra abbia avuto molte copie vendute oltre oceano, la prima cosa che avrebbero dovuto spiegare l affermazione contenuta nel titolo Spiegare, cio , perch le altre chiese NON fare [...]

10. Ho recentemente finito di leggere un libro che mi aveva parecchio incuriosito sto parlando di un libro che attacca duramente tutte le religioni e le chiese del mondo Sto parlando del libro dal titolo Il libro che la tua chiesa non ti farebbe mai leggere.Il libro un insieme di saggi di liberi pensatori come loro si definiscono che trattano liberamente ogni aspetto delle varie religioni e chiese di tutte le epoche Il libro mi ha molto appassionato anche se nelle parte centrale l ho trovato un po t [...]

11. The book provides a rather broad overview of atheism, but does not always welcome the label, and from which the reader can easily jump to other books and authors The usefulness of the book mostly ends here because it is a bit outdated However, there are a lot of classic writings in the book that are worth reading despite having modern and relevant texts It is a good book to have in any library at least to check once in a while how disbelief has changed over the last few centuries, and in effect [...]

12. Un insieme di saggi messi un po alla rinfusa uno accanto all altro I temi sono interessanti, ma la trattazione rapida e frammentaria, nonostante sia un volume di quasi 600 pagine E ho notato almeno un errore la confusione di Immacolata Concezione concepimento senza peccato originale di Maria con il concepimento verginale di Ges Visto che sul resto non ero ferrato temo ce ne possano essere altri

13. This book is basically a collection of essays on various religious topics and how they have their origins in pagan traditions I found it very informative and a good guidebook for anyone looking to distance themselves from mainstream religion It won t necessarily cause a religious person to leave the faith but if you re questioning your religion, this book gives some good information on alternative answers to what you ve been told by the church.

14. This is a powerful book that most of today s Christians are not ready for but MUST read This should be required reading for anyone over the age 16 Section on the propagation of sexual abuse by clergy members sickened me to my stomach but also opened my eyes to the fact that it happens in Islam and Judaism as well Definitely will recommend to others.
