The book is certainly not complex. Its message is obvious as soon as you read the title. I did not read it when I was still a Christian, and I doubt I would have agreed with the premise if I hadn't already been a slipping agnostic by the time I did. Oh yeah, welcome aboard new guy.

The only thing unfortunate is that you apparently don't realize this... hence the 'you're just starting' comment. Prefer simple things with enormous depth, myself.

Its message is obvious as soon as you read the title. The subject addressed by the book is pretty one-dimensional, and very straightforward. Like a long narrow tunnel between two states... 'the big picture' can be seen only through the microscope. Quote:I did not read it when I was still a Christian, and I doubt I would have agreed with the premise if I hadn't already been a slipping agnostic by the time I did. Meh, I think Dawkins should stick to biology. He's good at that

I was expecting Jessica Rabbit. I guess that's a tough comparison.
Richard Dawkins arguments are all worn out and in the trash already. waste of time addressing those... although we could do with someone to list the answers... So you're hired!

The only thing unfortunate is that you apparently don't realize this... hence the 'you're just starting' comment. Well then, I think we're in perfect agreement.

Oh come off it, I insulted you proper-like! And then, as any proper lady should: I pretended I didn't insult you. Whilst insulting you further!
