Good advice! I have to start taking formal logic classes for my philosophy major this upcoming semester. Looking forward to it, but I'm sure a head start is never a bad idea :P

Houston Smith's "The World's Religions" is a good primer for what other religions believe. Christians often claim their religion is unique, when that simply isn't true.
