One for the Kids

This this charming book got my attention.
Amazon: God Made Dad and Mum
best review:

"Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful" - Edward Gibbon (Offen misattributed to Lucius Annaeus Seneca or Seneca the Younger) (Thanks to apophenia for the correction)
'I am driven by two main philosophies:
Know more about the world than I knew yesterday and lessen the suffering of others. You'd be surprised how far that gets you' - Neil deGrasse Tyson
"Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it." - Mark Twain

Ha. I love reading the amazon reviews of goons who just go on to have a laugh sometimes.

Ever read the reviews of the 3 wolf moon t-shirt?

http://www.amazon.com/The-Mountain-Three...B002HJ377A

Quote:Pros: Fits my girthy frame, has wolves on it, attracts women
Cons: Only 3 wolves (could probably use a few more on the 'guns'), cannot see wolves when sitting with arms crossed, wolves would have been better if they glowed in the dark.

Also This:

Burning any book is just wrong, why would you do such a thing.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

For warmth of course! If the book had interesting ideas in it then it would continue to live in the reader's mind, only a book with ridiculous fairytales would actually cease to exist, and good riddance Clap!

For warmth and sustenance is the ONLY reason I would burn a book. I would quite happily start with the Qur'an , Bible, Pentateuch then progress with the governmental laws/ by laws/ and absurdities.
