Content warning Talking about some philosophical concept in the review. I think nothing major, but just in case π
I have been reading about Robert Langdon since I was around 15, and I have always thought how cool he was.
In this book, he once again enters the battle between religion and science, polemicising if the two could, should or must go hand in hand. I, personally, have a strong opinion about religion, but this book got me a bit excited about the concept of truly 'modern' religion, which hopefully can be supported by science.
It also got me thinking about the difference between religion and faith itself, and how nuanced those two are.
As a person who knows a bit about IT, I occasionally have a bad time reading IT reference texts. So I can imagine particular parts of this book being a little more challenging to people with a deeper IT knowledge.
Overall, I'm definitely not disappointed πand I hope I will be able to return to this book again sometime.
