Suffice it to say that by the end of the chapters dealing with the individual authors, I was happy that it was over. It was a thorough, detailed, dispassionate (with a little snarky levity thrown into the footnotes for flavor), and completely disheartening take-down of some of the best arguments that the godless have put into print - on their own terms, without using the Bible (in the first part of the book, that is), or any other sacred text to do it with. Amazing. And depressing. It is not my place to defend their books. I truly hope that they do find time to defend and clarify their books, specifically to the counter-arguments and claims made by Vox day in TIA, though, because they really need to. Trust me, it wasn't pretty.
I would think that with all the boasting by Vox and his supporters and positive reviews even by a few atheists, more people would want to read and discuss the book, but I've found very few opinions of the book past the first few chapters.
What’s everyone’s opinion of the book? Is there anything you agree with? How much do you disagree with?
I recently finished reading the book myself (and writing an in depth review that’s nearly finished) and I am shocked that the above atheist fell for Vox’s dishonest use of statistics and whatnot, and I also didn't care of Vox's unnecessary insults throughout the book.
I'm curious about other peoples' views of the book...so how many people here have read it and would like to discuss it?
